I tend to agree with those who say "display it the way you like it"

I have an autographed picture of Muhammed Ali that was personalized to me. It go a bit wrinkled over the years but still looks great. I tried to frame it but the wrinkles really showed.

I took it to a professional framer and asked him to dry mount it for me. He reminded me that it would hurt the collectible value of it. Since I have no plans to ever sell it during my lifetime - it has ZERO collectible value.

When I'm gone and my heirs decide to sell it who cares if they only get 50 cents for it. that's fifty cents more than they had.

Everyone's a winner there.

The only time all that stuff should matter is if you're planning on selling it as a framed item.
