I keep one or two cards out on a bookshelf. Right now, it is a 52 Topps Pafko and a 59 Home Run Derby Mantle, both in slabs. The rest I store in top loaders in a fire safe.

My sets are stored in penny sleeves in cardboard boxes. Im collecting T205 graded they are in the "vault" boxes. The three 3200 count boxes hold the non sports sets I'm working on. Two of the three binders hold 1960s Topps insert sets and odd sized stuff. The other binder is my in progress T206 set. Newer Topps sets 1980-1992 relegated to some random closet

I personally soft sleeve and top load all my vintage cards then store in 3 wide boxes by year. This can get rather expensive, but totally worth it in my opinion.

Card Savers in sheets [2 or 4 pocket depending on the size] and the sheets in Unikeep binders:
![]() They are clamshell so they stack equally or stand rigidly on shelving, take up much less space than a traditional 3 ring, and prevent the sheets from twisting all over the place along the open edges of a normal binder or snagging as you move them around. Also 100% inert polypro construction. Photos go into polypro pages with archival board behind them, or if small enough, into card savers and the aforementioned pocket pages. Also in Unikeep binders. Graded cards, which I have relatively few, go into waterproof boxes meant for food storage.

I just wanted to second Adam's recommendation on the Unikeep binders. I keep all my auto'd 8x10s in those as well as a few sets in pages. They stack nicely and don't smash the cards down like stacked regular binders.

You did not mention what you collect. I collect ungraded sets, and store/display them in Binders with 9 pocket sheets for easy access. If I collected graded cards or individual cards from different years I would not use binders
