How to best preserve Sporting Life Cabinets?
Hello Net54!
I have a number of loose W600 cabinet cards which are "safe" in a storage container between acid free lining, but it would be nice to figure out a more permanent solution, however having them graded would be A) monstrously expensive given their value and B) not really useful since there's no intention of selling any of them anytime soon. For those of you who have a collection of W600s, do you have a general recommendation on how best to preserve them for long term storage? Is there an "off the shelf" solution which comes close to fitting these cards and can be retrofitted? FWIW I'm not a collector per se, these are family heirlooms, so I don't have good tribal knowledge. Thanks for any advice. Best, Tyge

I have used Mylar pages for larger items but most likely someone will chime in. There are several W600 collectors on the forum. If you have a Cobb you are doing well!

Thank you Leon. A few other folks have mentioned certain sleeve types, I really want something that will prevent sliding in the sleeves to compliment them.
I do have a Cobb. It is creased and has a large ink stain, but at least it exists.

Awesome Tyge! I’m interested in how best to preserve W600 Cabs as well. That’s awesome that you have a Cobby! Amazing! I’ll defer to the W600 collectors on this forum, but I’d also love to see a few pics of a few that you have. Might be some really rare ones in there…

Would love to see an image of your Cobb. What a great card.
I use 4 mil Mylar sleeves with acid-free backings for my cabinet cards. The sleeves come in a ton of different sizes and the backings can be cut down to fit whatever is needed. https://www.bcemylar.com/ https://www.egerber.com/catalog_archives.htm Last edited by Baseball Rarities; 08-15-2021 at 11:59 AM.
