Default April Pick Ups

Posted By: Mark

I do all my own framing.... usually in uniform black frames. It lets each piece speak for itself. I would rather put the extra money into more memorabilia, rather than into the framing, but that's just my thing.

Plus, I am so OCD with some of this stuff, that I can't stand the thought of leaving it at the frame shop. It would be like leaving one of my kids with a complete stranger (ok, maybe just a notch below that...)

To Matt and Dan's point, I think regular UV glass is fine... although they do make a really cool/expensive museum glass with no glare at all (completely invisible). Much more important is that we keep this stuff away from direct sunlight and fluorescent lighting. It will easily outlive all of us that way.
