I buy $2 frames from Wal-Mart and have COVERED my entire dining room, wall-to-wall (no empty spaces) with autographs and memorabilia. It feels like you're eating in a Planet Hollywood.

I started collecting in 2005 and have only just starting sending out requests again this year after taking a few years break. I make scrapbooking pages for all my autographs. I have one scrapbook full, I also keep a few others in a folder. At the moment I am trying to collect all of the Twilight cast. If/when I get a response I will put them in frames and display them in my bookcase with all my Twilight items.

I think I share a lot of people's way. I have a huge binder (acid free/archival safe) that I use and I put them in acid free/archival safe top loading sheet protectors with a top flap. I used to use just plain top loading but I'd notice that letters would sometimes slip out of the top a bit, so these keep them in place. I seperate them by category (IE: Soap Opera stars, Television, Entertainment TV hosts, political figures, music, theatre and preprints). I'm also in the process of photo copying the one's I like and framing them.

I use the top loading sheets with backing cards and top flaps which I put in a few binders. I have pages that hold two smaller postcard 4x6's

and some that hold 4 index cards too. These are from Ultra Pro. I put magazines in comic bags with boards and keep them in large magazine

boxes. And many are framed on my walls.

Since I go for BIG stars ONLY, I put all of my autographed items (pics, DVDs, baseballs, etc.) on a big wall in my dining room. It's my "wall of fame." I use only very high quality frames, shadow boxes, etc. with the highest quality UV protected non-glare museum glass, acid-free matting, etc...

I have one of those self adhesive photo album things. They are OK to keep autographs in aren't they?

I wouldn't adhere anything directly to an autographed item.
