Cards or Art?
Who else has framed cards, encased them in UV-blocking glass, and put them on a wall (not exposed to direct sunlight) for all to see?

You’ve just described the best cards in my collection, apart from the UV glass.

Damn, that’s a pretty amazing selection of players from that era, on a single strip!

Nicely done.
Before the cost of the Mantle went up five fold I had plans to frame the 1954 Red Heart set with an ad featuring Stan Musial. Who knows, eventually I may bite the bullet and purchase the Mantle. The Musial ad can be found at the link below. https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...still-barking/

I believe this was from a member on here and I don't remember the thread. Had just saved the photo because it really is a work of art.

The frame job wasn't cheap, but it was cheaper than the cards. Most of them were PSA/SGC 3s and 4s

In my only foray into the T206 world as a KC baseball fan, I built the small Kansas City Blues team set and hung it in my home office. I thought it would be fun to decorate the matte in a "Piedmont" style. I cut holes in the back of the matte so you can still see the backs if you turn the frame over.
Fun project, and the only T206 cards I own. Pic1.JPG Pic11.JPG |

I'm not a set collector but photos like these make me want to pursue the Monster someday. Just a beautiful, enormous set.

Will share one of my displays here. Cards are loose so I just have to be careful not to turn on the fan!

Here is some more non-prewar but Card Art. Andy Friedman has some work through Topps apparently.
