The try a UV Blocking type pf glass. You can probably find them at a kodak shop or walmart.
I have no idea if this works, ask the people who sell frames about effectiveness.

To stop fading, you're gonna want glass that blocks out UV rays.
You'll also want a spacer, to stop the autograph from sticking to the glass. I buy acid free photo album clear sheets, and cut them to the right size to use, but you can use other things ^_^

I just strategically place the framed autographed photos so that they're out of direct sunlight. That should just as well, right?
