There are precious few parts of my collection that I am happy with the organization and display, but this is one of them. Probably twenty years ago or more I bought an antique patterns set of drawers from a retiring optometrist...It was probably $10 or so. It's not too large. (sorry for the upside down post).
It accommodates standard top loaders, which I like. I don't like how T206s flop around in the top loaders but I was able to come up with some inserts I like that I think help the cards stand out (most of my set would average G, with some highlights going to EX and the lowlights (Ohara/Demmitt) a clear P. I put each in a top loader with an insert and then package them in a team set bag and alphabetize them. Easy access, fast to find. I can get a full 520 set in a relatively small storage area. If I ever decide to sell of the higher grade or major HOFers of course i would have them graded, but the idea of having a 500+ card set in slabs would take up an inordinate amount of room.
