Here is how I store my cards...everything in my signature is pictured here.
Picture is from a bit ago, I now have some graded cards displayed on that top shelf. Also, the plan is to get 2 x 3 stickers that say the year and brand, "1953 Topps" for example, to cover the top part of the binders. I have all blue except for my Donruss & Leaf sets...black...and in the bottom right corner I have two full binders in black, one is 52-69 doubles, the other is 70-79 doubles. It's the most organized I have ever been and really happy after years of trying to figure it out. Once I get the stickers I will be very happy...(just got to get that done)
Edit to add that my 54 & 55 Bowman sets are in the same binders as my 54 & 55 Topps sets, there was plenty of room...no need to have 2 more binders although I may change my mind on that one day...
