Framing Raw Cards
I've seen some very nicely framed raw cards in the recent weeks and looking to do some myself in the near future.
How is everyone attaching the cards to the backing? I have double sided tape and penny sleeves before and that seemed to work okay. Any other options out there?

I use those photo corners for some of my stamp stuff where I'm attaching it to a cardstock page that goes into a page protector.
The corners can do a little damage about 1/4 inch in from the corner itself, so any really nice raw cards should probably also be in a mylar pocket or a cutdown cardsaver as well. Steve B |

I have gone three routes, and will share my own pros and cons.
1. Cards in top loaders, which are then glued. Pros: No risk to cards. Can arrange however you like. Cons: Extra glare from glass plus top loaders. 2. Corner adhesives. Pros: Can arrange freely. Looks great...Corner mounts nearly invisible. Mounts were soft and flexible enough that I didn't ding any corners. Con: Other than at corners, card surfaces touch glass directly. I would at least be nervous with very high value cards. In my case, the most valuable Newton here might be $25. 3. Pennzoni case with tip loaders Pros: No damage to cards; easy Cons: Can't get very creative. Glare. Of couse nothing I've ever done holds a candle to our fellow Chief Bender collector. His displays are the nicest I've seen, and I have to imagine that protecting his cards was a high priority. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
