How do you display your sports jerseys?

I just bought a jersey and am looking to find a nice way to display it without breaking the bank...

Thanks and look forward to seeing how you guys have done up your jerseys

If you have a curio to put it in, some like this is nice:

Unfortunately if you have it framed, be prepared to break the bank. My friend just had his professionally framed and it cost him $400 (lots of extra details though). I think you can get them done for as low as $200 if you find the right place and don't ask for too many bells and whistles.

I have a signed Ripken jersey and decided to turn the framing into a little project. Since my Ripken jersey is grey, I've been buying random GU jersey cards that have a grey jersey swatch, and I'm going to display the cards around the border of the jersey, all inside the frame. So far I'm up to 13 jersey cards, but I think I'm going to need twice that many to make it look decent. I got this idea from another member here but I can't remember who it was or what thread it was in. I'm planning on framing it myself, but the cost in materials is going to well exceed $150. The matte alone will cost me almost $100. It'll be cool once it's done. I'm in no hurry.

A friend of mine has a really nice Clemente vest jersey. He went to a local department store and asked if they and extra mannequins and the owner said sure we have extras. It displays really nice in his man cave. Just a thought.

That female mannequin must be cold.

I really like this idea. I might look into doing this myself.

Thanks!
