Question of the members who frame and display their memorabilia...

Nine blankets in the diamond pattern looks great, IMO. Have seen a number of such displays.

Here is my display of Senators B-18s. I had a nice WaJo already, then about 20 years ago David Festberg(!) auctioned off his collection of commons he told me later was the result of years of upgrading. I got the 8 Washington commons for almost nothing, and couldn't believe the condition. I think it's the only time I've ever called a dealer to tell him how surprised and happy I was with the condition of a piece. I like to display my treasures, and when I laid them out trying to figure out how, to my amazement they together formed a diamond with each player in his correct position. This Washington club stayed intact for four years and was Clark Griffith's first great club in D.C., finishing second in 1912 and 1913 and in the first division all four years. This is one of my very favorite pieces, mounted by my framer with archival tape, of course, and always draws the eyes and comments of visitors to my collection.

Let us know when you are done, would love to see it. The B-18 displays look really great. I have only had one thing framed and it is a large Horner Composite photo which now hangs on my office wall.
