Display Question

[margoaepi]

Forgive me for asking a question that may have been beaten to death, but what do people recommend using to display a mixed group of graded cards, both SGC and PSA, including some postcards? I haven't been able to find anything online that allows me to mix and match between standard cards and oversized.

I don't care if this question has been asked before, as I've yet to see a good solution to the problem of displaying cards of different sizes! I have a complete HOF collection, and have always wanted to display them IN ORDER OF INDUCTION. But the collection consists of several different sized cards in slabs - ranging from standard to 8x10. It's a tricky issue, when trying to arrange them in order, neatly, and efficiently (with regard to spacing).

I have graded and raw '33 Goudey's in a Pennzoni case that, at least to me looks good. It's now almost completely filled with graded cards, but this is what it looked like a while back.

Pennzoni cases are awesome. Not real expensive and look great with graded cards. I have 5 hanging up in my mancave holding cards. Gives me zen.

As for BINDER storage, I have been somewhat successful with an Archival Methods binder, raw cards in front in nine pocket pages, raw large items in a full page (think comic book binder page), then an Archival Methods page turner (basically a cardboard insert) and then graded cards in back in four pocket pages. SGC slabs fit nice and snug in the four pocket pages. PSA holders are thinner, so they are a little looser...so I put PSA holders in the bottom slots of the four pocket pages and SGC in the top (keeps the PSA holder from sliding out the top if you tilt the album too much).

The cardboard page turner insert helps prevent the rigid holders of graded cards from indenting or bending the raw cards on the page in front of it.

The wall wood display was from IKEA and the frame was done professionally archival
