Looking for advice with displaying graded cards

Go to a craft store. Michael's .... Fun tack. It's like putty it will hold them in place and it comes off without leaving a trace. Scott

2 questions. First, are the cases the pennzoni deep cases? The deep cases have a slot for the cards to ride in and the top of the slab leans against the back of the case. The non deep cases have this ledge thing holding the cards in and the cards tend to lean forward. Second question is did you use the hardware provided by pennzoni? You would do better with a french clete to hold the cases on the wall. They are more secure than the providd hardware and I would know living in earthquake territory. Also as mentioned above, there is a product called quake hold that you can stick to the top of the slab and it does not hurt the slab or the cabinet. I have used this technique in a 12 card pennzoni case.

I actually have both of those cases. On the inside I put down a long piece of double back tape on the back side. Put my cards in team bags and pressed them up against the back.

This although I was going to say graded card sleeves, just as cheap.

Yes Ken, they're Pennzoni cases, as they appear to hold a monopoly if you will for these type of cases. I did NOT use their hardware.

I have seen what you're talking about and these cases are not the "deep" style otherwise I wouldn't have this issue.

Anyone know of any other company with cheaper or better cases?

I used to have the normal Pennzonni cases and they were okay but I had the same issues as you are having. Long story but about 5 years ago, had some health issues and most of the contents of our home ended up getting auctioned off including the old Pennzonni cases

When I was ready to redisplay the cards, I bought the deep cases. They were affordable (under $90) the cases look great and display my SGC slabbed cards nicely. Only issue I had was with SGC cards, they do not fit as many cards as they do with PSA cards. I eliminate this issue by spacing the cards correctly and they look great.

Josh,

Beautiful cards by the way. Make sure to post some pics of the room and set up when it's all done!

Those look great Josh. When you land that red Cobb will it get its own case?
