Question for Player Collectors

[JeterCollector_BC]

This is for people who have a semi-large to a large collection of a player. I was wondering how you organize and where you put your cards. I personally put them in a binder, chronalogically and have the Game Used/Autos in cases in a "special"place. I was just wondering how other people organize their collections.

I keep my Lamar Odom collection in 100-count hard plastic boxes.

I keep all mine in a binder by year and then by brand-set. May have to change that eventually though if my collection grows larger but haven't added much latelty.

I have all of my Artest base, parallel, and numbered in binders. As far as the nicer cards, I have the autographed cards in screwdowns, and the lower numbered and GU in toploaders in an index card box.

I've considered binders before for player collections, but doesn't it get tedious rearranging them all the time when you get new ones to put in order? With plastic boxes, I can just open the box and fit the new card additions in quickly without having to carefully slide the cards in and out of the binder pages.

I have a hugh Jeter collection. I know this may be anal, but every base card and insert are in top loaders. Arranged by year and brand.

It does get tedious, so I try not to do it often. What exactly are these plastic boxes you are talking about? Are the cards just loose in the box, or do they stay protected somehow?

[WilyWestbrook0]

The boxes are shaped so that it protects the cards very well. I will take a pic of one of them for a better idea.

ok - first one is front, second picture is side view (the card box is on top of some CDs here)
