Default For you collectors

How do you guys display your teams?

Also if you have a solitaire league do you displayyour teams or store them?

Also if you display them with their bases on how do you display them?


thanks for any ideas

Default Displaying teams

I usually just store them in Plano storage cases. However I do have some small plex cases (the kind that are used for small diecast cars) that I will eventually use to display teams in.

MFCA Displaying teams ....

I buy lettering kits and the plastic cases at Micheals that you put model cars in. I use the letters to display year and team on top of case. I put these on shelves in my EF room.

Default An idea

I have not done this yet, but an idea I have is:

- Get a display case that is designed for a full size signed baseball bat like you can get a Michaels or the Container Store.
- Then cut one of your un-used field covers long way at the long end of the field. In other words you want the yard markers and numbers to show. Cut off the sideline and then measure the depth of the bat display case to get the depth (towards the center line of the feild) you need to cut the field cover a second time.
- Then glue the field to the bottom of the case.
- Then place your men lined up from one end of the case (feild) to the other to show them off.

This way all players are "up front" so to speak, and you get the feel of them being on a football feild.

Let me know your thoughts.

I am looking at a way to display 32 teams in my solitarie when I finish ( in a couple of years)

I worry about the cost of that endeaver for 32 teams .
