I’m getting to the point in my t206 collecting where I have stacks of cards piling up around the house. The piles make sense to me; a stack of new cards I haven’t recorded into my database, a stack of cards I’ve recorded but haven’t scanned, a stack of southern leaguers I’ve scanned, another stack of HOFers I’ve scanned, then a storage box full of the rest.
But long term storage is something that’s been on my mind for several months. I’ve already decided to place each card in the small tobacco-sized top loaders. Besides that, I don’t have long term storage ideas. I thought about displaying some, but not sure how. And I don’t have a ton of space in the house for a display. I’ve seen some people displaying graded cards in everything from specialized frames to cheap picture frames from Target.
For ungraded cards, I haven’t seen any good options. I’ve seen some framed displays that are specially made for ungraded cards, but there doesn’t seem to have a lot of protection for the cards. So for now, it seems I’ll keep to my stacks of cards and a rubbermade box. If anyone have storage tips or ideas, please share them in the comments below. Thanks.
