Countertop and wall baseball card displays

Where is the best place to purchase these for a good price? I'm trying to think of some good ways to display my PC's when I start working on my man cave haha. Any Links or ideas to keep it relatively cheap but nice would be helpful. thank you!

Got these for $20 at either Hobby Lobby or Michael's

Micheal's carries display cases like the one pictured by ChasHawk. Can't recall how much they cost, but they come with BONUS cards! Usually each holder contains a late-80's or early-90's card! Wow. The ones I've seen only hold standard thickness cards, not relic cards.

Yeah, they aren't for relics, that's for sure.

Some of the cards I have in there are a little more than standard thickness, but not much.

Pretty sure they are $39.99, but I got mine during a 50% off frame sale.

Even better...$16.97 from walmart.com, with free site-to-store shipping...

I will have a few different styles of display cases available in about 2 months. I have a couple more pieces of equipment to buy and have to deal with a DOA dust collector but should be up and running in a couple months. I am still experiminting with different materials and hardware and also testing multiple jigs/fixtures to make the assembly process easier. I will start with 3 styles of display case and 3 styles of graded card boxes and the product line will grow from there and will eventually include custom items when the CNC router is finished (its at 50% right now). I will be doing this on the weekends as I have a regular job that keeps me busy during the week, I just want to sell a few to make some card money and to help fellow collectors display their collections. I will of course give FCB members a discount and also be willing to trade for cards that I need. Hopefully have the first units off the line in around 8 weeks and I think you will find my craftsmanship better than most anything out there. Hope I can help you all out in the near future. Thanks

What he said.


I also have a few of those.





And these. Bought at Kohl's.





This 'CARDINALS' frame came with generic Topps team cards in it, but I replaced it with others.

thanks for the help. definately going to look into those wall mounts, I guess hobby lobby has a 40% off coupon that you can print off right now.

try AC MOORE craft shops they have them for around 20 bucks.

If you were going for a counter top display, these may help. It's not fancy and it only holds one card, but I think they are cool.

Kind of a ripoff since it's only 20pt though.

You can just buy the little plastic easels that will hold any size one-touch, bgs case, psa case, etc.

If they had them in different sizes, that would be a better deal.

wish it was posiible to get some of those trade show cases for cheaper than $50. Has anyone seen a retail store (hobby lobby, michaels) sell these? http://www.pennzonidisplay.com/tradeshowcases.aspx

For those thinking about building your own here's a few examples of what I've been doing. If your displaying autos ProMold make 2 types of UV holders in various sizes, one is called a 5 year & 1 is called a 20 year ( i think meaning the amount of bad light versus a non UV holder ). I rotate different sets in & out of my frames so nothing is up very long at a time.



an unfinished example -


1st set I framed years ago-


Here's a link to more examples - http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v718/Krusin/frames/
