hey guys,

I am looking for Custom Encapsulation (more beckett style since it is UV coated) to display my pieces..

basically, it would be to individual cards, an 8x10, an index card and 2 pieces 5 x 17.5 inches.

I know I can get the cards, 8x10, and index card all put in holders....but the 2 pieces that are 5in X 17.5 inches I don't know what to do ....

ultimately., I would want all these in a frame......

I am just brainstorming here........so I was looking for some advice....

to be honest, I struggle alot because I have some really great things that I don't display and end up in a box or locked away for all but the 20 days I look them them in a year.....


any advice..

    Why not just frame without encaps and use UV glass?

    You could mount the cards in pennysleeves or CS1 if you wanted. OR, what I like to do, is scan EVERYTHING and put HQ reprints into the frame and keep the originals safely stored elsewhere. OR you could slab the card, photo, IC and keep the other 2 items not slabbed.
    What are the 2 bigs items?

    I've got about fifteen 132 card sheets in top loaders tucked away in a closet. I would love to display them but haven't found a reasonably priced option either. I too would love to hear what other CU'ers have done.
