Default My Framing Project

Hi, I'm more recently back into the hobby and I just wanted to share my framing project that kept me either sane or possibly insane during the pandemic. A very special thanks to Snapolit1 for answer a billion questions even though I think he secretly scoffs at the lower grades I can (barely) afford.

Really great getting to know some members here so far and look forward to getting to know more. I have a lot more to learn about these fantastic pieces of carboard and this is the right place.

Take care, Jim

(1948/1949 Leafs are my new misguided project if anyone wants to sell or trade)

Anybody who scoffs at that collection would be insane. Regardless of the grades, you've got some incredible cards, and I love the display. I also really like your 4 cards per set approach, it gives a nice slice of cards through the years.

They look great! I really love the way you have the landscape cards in one frame to line up next to the two frames of portrait cards. You can tell that it was a project done by someone who gets a lot of joy from the cards. Nice job!

Those look outanding. Did you actually cut openings in matting for each card, or did you attach the holders to the back plate/mat?

100% Agreed

I think you have both a great display and some amazing cards. I do not know who would not be proud to have a collection like you have.

The presentation of it is fantastic. You can proudly display where others (like me) only can show pictures because our are in lock boxes

Very impressive. You have more courage than me. I considered displaying my cards in a similar fashion. However, the thought of a potential burglar taking a single frame off the wall, and walking out with five figures worth of cards scared me. I decided to keep them in the dark safety deposit box. Good luck, and nice collection.
