Hey RSVP,
i couldn't have said it better. They actually still make PVC Sleeves? I thought they went out with the dinosaurs. LOL . jennyblue, I also get my sleeves from staples. I always look for archival safe, no pvc. As far as putting them in frames I have maybe 200 or so in frames with acid free backing and UV PROTECTED GLASS which you can special order from any frame/ matting/picture shop.

reading through all these postings from other users I have the impression that we are dealing with a lot of young/teen collectors who can't afford the technique's yet that we are using.
Maybe I was getting too technical, but my tips were still the one's you need to still have fun with your collection over the next 60+ years.
Best,
Stephan

Please don't be rude. For all you know, whosurdaddy could be 17/18? Thats young to me so please don't make false accusations about othersreading through all these postings from other users I have the impression that we are dealing with a lot of young/teen collectors who can't afford the technique's yet that we are using.
I'm not getting rude at all. It's just a simple fact that a teenager can't afford the equipment that the "older" generation uses since they do only live off their pocket money. A professional framing with acid free backing and UV protected glass/museum glass is the kind of really expensive stuff and nothing that you would get next door at WalMart's.TheMailman wrote:Please don't be rude.

If you have ever paid more than US $40.000 on an ALS by John Wilkes Booth you will understand why it's so important to put money in the protection of your autographs.TheMailman wrote:But seriously, thats getting too technical. At the end of the day, it is a piece of paper which has a scribble on it, why go and spend so much when you can slide it into a nice folder than spending more, than the actual autograph is worth?
