Collection Display Case

[Scheidl]

Hey guys, what are some of the ways you guys display your card collection? 100+ cards
Currently mine are stuffed away in a box. My plan is someday to get them all graded through Beckett. Then possibly build a wall mount display case with shelves and possibly some sliding glass.
What are some of the ways you guys display or cases you have made? Pictures would be awesome.
Is there anything you can buy for this? Pre-made?
Thanks Steve

Wondering myself but scared about light ruining the cards especially autos.

I have the cards in the one-touches sitting on the little stands on the shelves. The ones in the floating frames are...........taped to the back of the glass, but with photo-tape. The blinds are drawn in the room, so I've never had an issue with fading :D

Good thought, I wonder if there is a specific type of glass that would be better to use, also specific lights that don't harm cards.

87Sluggo, thats a great display case, did you build it or is it an old store display, great score!

I got it from a military surplus store that was going out of business :D


You CAN get UV-blocking glass from the picture frame stores.

You can also buy UV-blocking film to attach to regular glass - it's meant for shading sun-exposed windows but will serve the purpose!
