Yup - I like the one without the photos even better. It does tighten up the display, for sure!
Cheers, Blair

I like the diamond shape and without the pictures. Here is the Dots Miller collection I have, just so you see another example of a set up. I used velcro to keep the card/holders in place. I put all of the graded cards at the bottom, same pose straight down the middle and all the batting cards on the one side, Zeenuts and E cards across from each other in the middle.

Bender display
Very nice! Great collection.
It looks good as it is, but for what it's worth here's a few miscellaneous suggestions: I'd move the HOF plaque to the top center and put the oval photo underneath it, as the focal point. The largest face is your focal point, IMO. The Pinkerton could go where the oval photo was. Maybe tighten up the layout a bit more to reduce the overall size of the piece. You will want people to be able to see the items up close so going above 44x44 total size is quite huge to have on a wall. Have a professional cut the mat because the mat will be complicated and it won't look good if the cuts aren't precise. I liked your T206 piece with the green mat and the black background behind the cards. You won't need a fancy frame with that beautiful collection, maybe a heavy duty solid black frame would be sharp. Don't forget the UV glass and acid-free mounting materials. Congrats!

My recommendation was to take the photos out. And what u did there looks great. It brings everything much closer. As for a back ground a darker color be nice. The reason I say that is it will help draw your attention to the cards and not the background maybe a dark green,dark blue even black. Anyway you do it as long as ur happy that's all that matters. By the way great collection
