Steve,

Killer CJ setup! Are those in the slab still, or did you save the black SGC inserts after freeing all of them? Nice that that pair of E107s on the wall have some company!

Best,

Andy

Looks awesome! I think the matte is just right as it shows off the red of the cards.

Nice display. What kind of glue did you use to glue the cards to the mat?

Very nice Steve. The matte you picked was perfect. It allows the cards to pop!! A red back drop would have drowned them out.

15 are graded SGC and the other 12 are in old sgc slabs that were broken.

They fit into square cutouts in the back and can be swapped by removing the back glass and matte...I like to put my cards on the floor!

Thanks for all the kind words guys, now back to work!

That looks absolutely phenomenal! I like how the cards can still remain in the SGC holders, but the display only shows the black inserts.

The only thing I might suggest is adding a small "Cracker Jack" or "Cracker Jack Ball Players" across the top or bottom of the display, printed in the exact font that's used on the cards. This may prove to be more costly than it is worth, and it's only a suggestion -- the piece looks great just the way it is.

This is what I was envisioning, fwiw....
