I was just curious where everyone put all their successes. I know everyone has their favorites. So tell me about it.

Well when it comes to PPs I just pitch em unless I really like it for whatever reason.
What I do with my authentics is go to wal-mart and buy some photo pages that go into 3-ring binders. Make sure their acid free.
I keep all of my authentics in a binder. I do the same with my signed baseball cards.

the pages that you are talking about, do they make the autograph stick to the clear plastic if you decide to take it out at a later time? also do they keep the auto from fading?

I'll probably do the binder thing. I was using inexpensive frames for my favorites and hanging them on the wall of the little room where my computer is but we're selling the house and I took them all down and now they're in a bin. The ones not framed are in a plastic bag.

Keeping autographs in a plastic bag can cause moisture to develop :neutral:

Not like a Ziploc bag but one huge plastic bag with a giant pile of autographed pics and other things in it. Like a bag that you'd get at the grocery store. And I take them out often to admire them.

But I see what you're saying.

It's best to use acid free, plastic folders, and as long as you dont keep them anywhere too warm, and out of sunlight, or derect heat. They will be Ok 4 ever {thumb2}
And there very cheap, £1.99 for 50 8x10. That's only $4.
And, I'm sure you would agree that your auto's are worth that small outlay!
