Whether displayed or stored, keep the autograph away from direct sun. Even lamps and overhead lights can cause fading. The piece should be stored or displayed in a room that has consistent humidity and temperature. If you do not display the item, purchase archival tissue paper to wrap the fabric.

As 95% of my autographs are on 5 x 3 plain white index cards i keep them stored in a photograph album that holds 6 x 4 photos and is acid free. It works for me as not too bulky and simple to store without taking up a lot of space.

Yeah, I haven't told my friends about my auto collecting. They will probs think it is a waste of time and money, but I really enjoy it and they don't actually have any real hobbies so they're just boring!
So I keep mine framed on the wall(none of my friends come to my house, I'm embarassed by it since theirs are so big and posh and mines a small 3 bedroomed bungalow!), I love to display stuff its like also my walls are covered in certificates and stuff. Thats just who I am.

I keep my autographs in plastic pokets in a folder but the 7 most important to me, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmers, Jennifer Anistons, Lisa Kudrows, Courtney Cox-Arquettes and Pelés autographs are in golden-coloured frames on my walls. :wink:

When I get an autographed picture, I go to Wal-Mart and get another frame and then hang it on my wall. My windows don't let a lot of light in so I don't have to worry about fading. My wall space is starting to run a bit thin, so I may have to go to albums and scrapbooks. Which I don't like because then you can't see them all at once.


Thanks,

Daniel

I just keep mine in a drawer at the moment until i get a better storage idea!

Well, it depends on the picture. Some companies use fade-resistant ink and paper, others just use regular photo paper. I would try to keep them out of direct sunlight. That way you run almost no chance of anything happening.
