I have several books with all the cards broken down by team years for each team that I follow. I also have a book that has all the autographed cards. My question should I include the signed cards with the non-signed cards or keep them separate. I do have a accurate inventory of everything I have signed. Just curious what everyone thinks?

I'm not an autograph or memorabilia collector. But, the few autograph and memorabilia cards I have are kept separate.
-------------------------------
Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |

I have a separate book for autos & relic cards. I even go so far as to separate those further by serial numbering. Single digit numbers, then double digit, then triple, then all larger numbers, and finally unnumbered. And I mean the total number (SN99 or whatever), not the unique number on my card. I don't own any 1/1 cards, or they would be in the very front by themselves.
That's the fun thing about collecting cards. There is no right answer to your question. We all do it a little differently to give us the maximum enjoyment from our collections!
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

My sets binders have autograph cards integrated into them if that card is the best condition card.

I keep mine seperate mostly because the GU cards are thick and harder to keep in a binder.
I would say the majority of my GU and Auto cards are in moster boxes.

I have been treating auto cards as a seperate set in my binders. There is always a chance I will run into another card in the auto set at some point in my collecting life.
