We finally moved into our a new house and I have my baseball card room! I got my display case set up and I think it is starting to come together. I only took some pics of the display case but when I am finished with it I will post more. Thanks for looking.

looks awesome! i wish i had more room to work with.
Looks great, I see lots of nice mini's on display there Smile
You are very lucky to have a baseball card room Big Grin
Very nice room and collection! Congrats!
One thing I can suggest, Dallas, is that you rotate cards in and out and control when/how often blinds/curtains are open. Having cards on the East or West wall can be tricky anywhere (also North or South, actually, depending on where you live and what time of year it is). Essentially, in all this, just consider that horrid ruiner of cards: LIGHT. Those cards look great right now; just keep them that way.

Enjoy your room!

Thanks for the advice. I only have one window in that room and there is never any direct sunlight coming through it at the cards. I was thinking about getting curtains in there too though for a little extra light blocking.

Thanks. The two in the back are pulled from rip cards and they are next to the cards they are pulled from. The other two are the red back minis that are numbered to 25.
I would get curtains just to be safe.
Nice display. Congrats!
Great looking display! What is that trophy?

Is there any chance artificial light (room/cabinet lighting) can damage or fade cards? I have a small amount of cards on display myself and have always wondered that.
