Ingenuity at its finest, Bru. Really like that. Did you paint that, too?
Boy, 50 years from now that generation will be able to simply use today's TVs as frames.

My ex was the painter. The picture though is from a jigsaw puzzle (I have 2 of them unopened). Would need another artist should I ever have one for Wrigley Field (probably my daughter though her macabre ideas may have more than a baseball park in the picture).

Wish I was handier at carpentry. Could really makeit even a nicer cabinet. Pretty rough overall. But yes, I like it very much.

I snapped a picture, too, but I haven't been able to copy and paste it in!

Sportz, when using my cell phone I can copy or move a photo in my case by using an arrow at the bottom of the screen. Then when you are here in the forum just hold your finger down in the text area and the word paste should pop up. Not sure if that was helpful or clear but it may help

I'm using binders, storage boxes, even shoe boxes. I have thousands of cards to catalog but no storage. With the binders I'm putting player PC in them. Hopefully I will make some progress soon lol

Now, after such a buildup in learning how to post pictures onto our site it's all downhill from here.
I store most of my personal collection in binders, but I do keep some in boxes along with all of my trade list in these two tubs:
This is one of my displays; it's a football, baseball, and basketball combination of The Best (or My Favorite) Player by Jersey Number. It's basically four large frames that house the cards (see lists on my profile). They are bordered on each corner by three team logo cards (again, either my favorite or the best).

Joshua....Congrats on figuring out how to post a pic in the forums! Your'e framed cards are great. I'm inspired and I'm planning my own project based on the idea. Since I collect Topps football, I think I'll do one card from every Topps football set ('56-'15).
How did you put yours together?

I simply made a list of the players, giving favor to stars on my teams at times, and relenting at others. For example, Walt Garrison is one of my all-time favorite players in any sport, but how could I leave off Jim Brown for #32 (especially now with his stance against kneeling during the national anthem).
Then it was a matter of dividing them as equally as possible over the four frames. There are more football, than the other sports due to numbers used traditionally.
they are in sleeves taped on the back onto sheets. Not professionally done, but it's what I had at the time.
