Hello everyone, new guy on the block here. Just Googled and found this site It seems very cool.
Some quick background. I collected lots of cards as a kid in the late 70s early 80s. New issues at that time, as well as older stuff back to mid 50s. Those cards have been stored now for almost 30 years. I have sold a bunch of them, and plan to sell most of the rest. While they have meaning to me, I just can't see the value in having them sit in a fireproof lock box. I can take them out once in a while and go through them, but that gets old kind of fast for me.
So, my question: Does anyone have a good way to display vintage (and sometimes fairly valuable) cards? If I can hang them on the wall like art (which they really are, to me) and appreciate them every day then I might be more inclined to keep them. But I don't want to damage the cards in order to display them. I can imagine a custom framing job with archival foam board cut out to allow card to fit snugly as a backer and UV blocking glass, but if a solution exists I'd much prefer not to re-invent the wheel.
Thanks for any ideas. My only fear is that I'll start hanging around here and want to buy more cards instead of selling what I have. But you guys aren't enablers that way, right?
