All of the originals are in binders. I have a few copies that I have on my wall. I don't like to hang the originals on the wall incase of sun damage! My house is a bit of a sun trap!

3 ring binder. I have one dedicated solely to baseball, the other is a mix of different sports, actors, actresses, historical figures, etc.

I have a couple framed, some boxed for a future framing. Signed jerseys are still in packaging for the time being. Baseballs are all in envelopes until I can get enough UV cubes. When I move to a house that I'm going to live in for a while, I'll set up a room for them to go in. May eventually put the baseballs/jerseys up in my office.

I put mine in a photo album. My current album is the wrong size and some won't fit. I like keeping the envelopes too but it's too big for the album. I'll try to buy a bigger one when I get the chance. I like them to be compiled and just like LGPSG, I like to flick through them. :mrgreen:

Some are framed, some are in plastic bags, some are books, some are in pockets in my planner.

It really varies with the article that gets signed. I get press kit photos signed, those get put into a binder with the rest of the press kit. Unless it's a press kit from 2001-present which means everything is saved to a CD, then I have to convert the .tif photo and print it. Those go in a binder as well.
If it's a poster (promotional mini or full sized) they get dry mounted and shrink wrapped. and placed into a frame box with the rest of the collection.
If it's a magazine, hard cover or soft cover novel or comic book these get bagged and boarded and put a label on them stating who signed it, where (live or TTM) and when (month and year)
If it's a banner it gets rolled and boxed up for later display.
If it's a trading card, bagged and boxed.
If it's a DVD cover of CD cover, it goes back into the original case.
If it's something I got signed for someone else, I'll frame it and ship it. I have piggybacked their request with mine (or vice versa) and gotten two or more items signed. I'll catalogue mine in the binder and treat theirs like a precious gem, buy selected the perfect frame (<$10 @ Walgreens or Wal-Mart) and ship it with no notice and wait for their squeal of delight through the phone to announce they received it!
I am kind of picky about which items I release to celebrities. I have been burned as we all have, sending off something precious and personal only never to see or hear from it again. Hope this helps.

I keep mine in a box, I'm waiting to hear back from a few that I'm going to want to frame.

I have three letters framed, i bought the wrong size frames so i just stuck what I could in them.


I should get a binder or something, but then I wouldn't know what to do with the envelopes.
