How To Store And Display Awards. - Page 77

I have a few documents that feel like they could crumble into pieces at any second if handled improperly. Are there any threads about document preservation other than keeping them in plastic?

Oh, about the problem with medals and other items falling out of the tops of sheet protectors, try this - double sided scotch tape. I don't know how long the little strips will last opening and closing whenever (I just came up with the idea while at Hobby Lobby), but for now they are working great.

And thank you for the compliment on my collection. Those are the kinds of things that keep me motivated to do the tedious work in order to display them.

This display is not from my collection. I found this on another Forum and just placing here because it is very impressive.

Very nice. Nothing overly elaborate, would be something I'd like to hang on the wall of the home office.

In this case he is not really lucky. The owner died. His wife sold this display.
