I put mine in a photo album with acid, PVC, and Lignin-free pages. I then store that in the top of my closet, on its side.

I keep mine in the envelops they come in and leave them in a draw, out of harms way

I keep mine in frames, I'd love to put them all in a photo album but it's rather awkward as they're all different sizes, ranging from about A4 size to 6"x 4". I guess I could get a large album and then get backing or something. I'll decide on it when I run out of room, lol!

hi!

i just had a successful in person autograph with Michael Schumacher. :D He signed my schumi cap and now I was wondering what is the best way to store it? Right now, the cap is inside my cabinet, wrapped in plastic. I'm sorry, I'm just a newbie and Schumi has been my racing hero ever since and now that I was able to get him to sign my cap, I want to keep the cap in great condition {up}

thanks!

I finally got myself an acid-free photo album!
I now have a lot of excess photo frames, haha.

I keep my eastenders autographs in a 6 by 4 album

My David Tennant and Anthony Head autographs are in frames, on my wall and the side.
I just put the David Tennant one in the frame and its touching the glass (what exactly will happen to it) The autograph itself is only on thick paper (almost card)

Hollie :D

The easiest way to store them for simple display is either:

- archival plastic bags and acid free boards that you can get from comic book stores (buy them in bulk to save money). Once you start to increase your collection look online for similar ones so that you can save money there.

- or acid free photo books from better art supply stores. You can also look for these on Ebay or the net.

Good luck,
