No Graded Slabs... But Picture Frames??
I realize many here do not enjoy the death grip TPG's seem to have on the hobby. I'm personally not against grading per se, but believe it has its place on certain items (disclosure: I prefer SGC on prewar items).
For the non-grading or infrequently grading crowd, how do you display your favorite items? Have you done anything with picture matting and framing? Below is an example i personally like on an 1880's trade card. Old frame for an old baseball advertisement.

I enjoy making custom "Signature Collection" jumbos, which pair original 1909-11 T206 cards with their authentic signatures. I use the same layout and dimensions as the 2013 Historic Autographs "1909-13 Originals" issue. I suppose I could get them graded, but I really like them raw like this!
Here's my Lajoie next to my Dineen HA....

Nice idea, especially with trade cards since they vary so much in size/dimensions.

I wanted a fun, low cost (relatively speaking) t206 project, so I chased the Kansas City Blues team set, and then created a custom matte and frame for it.
It was fun, and currently hanging in the home office: D3A43A98-50A0-46B0-B258-883F5A0173E7.jpg 9B00645F-4353-467D-A2A0-4B9B6E2A66C3.jpg 06F4D5B7-D24D-4CC8-BC09-4A87339BC248.jpg

This strip would be hard to grade better in a archival frame since the early 1980's
