I've saved a few images of "glued collections" over the years for some reason. None of these are my cards, I just thought these were interesting images, showing how people chose to display cards before they held any real value. Many of these were likely posted here on Net54 over the years.

some of these images are big, so apologies for expanding everyone's browser window











And here's an example of an album page from Lionel Carter's collection, this being a photo taken before his collection was divided up and sold at auction. He used those little corner tabs to hold the cards down rather than actually adhering the cards to the pages. Some cards showed small marks or discoloration from where the tabs were placed, but the great majority of cards were very well preserved thanks to Mr. Carter's efforts.
