51 Bowman Mantle…. your suggestions, display ideas?

[Bestdj777]

That’s a fantastic card. Congratulations! Given how nice it is, I recommend against displaying the actual card. Instead, you may want to consider buying a cheap SGC graded 51 Bowman of any other card, cracking it, and inserting a high quality scan of your card and label and using that in your display. You won’t risk any damage to your card as a result and no one will know any better.

For pairing it, I like the idea of using the original photo. That, with a nice Yankee blue matt, would look really nice. The idea of adding a ticket stub is a great idea, as is a period, cut auto (I think a facsimile would be more than acceptable for budget and safety reasons) or a more recent auto if you prefer genuine.
