(Part 2) Top products from r/baseballcards

Thanks!

The display doesn't get any direct (or really, indirect) exposure to sunlight. There's a window facing the case, but it's always completely blocked with cellular blinds, so no sunlight.

I just now did a bit of research after you asked, and it does seem like there is still some longterm risk with other indirect sources of UV light. This article is pretty informative:

One option seems to be the UV rated holders. But for graded cards in slabs, the UV protected holders obv won't work, so perhaps something like this could work as well:

Any ideas or insight on how we can better protect from light exposure?

If Cecchini or Lopez turn into anything, those '87 Style Inserts are fairly popular (the Judge and Benintendi versions go for $10-20 right now), but that's more a waiting game.

You might be able to get a ton for that Machado autograph, though. Great pull.

Edit: If you haven't already, invest in a couple penny sleeves and plastic top loaders to keep them safe, especially the Machado.

Here are a couple amazon links for what I use: https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Soft-Sleeves-8-Inches/dp/B00CV859XC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498764432&sr=8-1&keywords=penny+sleeves

Pretty sure this case is fine

Amazon special lol 25 bucks

Looking at the amazon listings for the book, it looks like the guide is not a complete record of the pricing for all sets. You can get a one month subscription to beckett for one sport for like $12. You can copy and paste their pricing checklist by set into a spreadsheet to "keep" for your own use after your 1 month expires.

These will work fine as long as you hvae graded card sleeves as well; Otherwise the cases will slip out too easily. https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-4-Pocket-Platinum-Pockets/dp/B0009RNQN2

Ive got this pretty awesome book that gives a bit of story and background on every player in the T206 set. It looks amazing.

Ordered it off Amazon.

Pretty pleased with it for the price. Cards don't really fit in there in toploaders so they're all in penny sleeves, but it isn't that big of a deal since they're not getting handled in there anyway.

Something like this:

https://www.amazon.com/2017-Topps-Baseball-Hobby-Box/dp/B071XDC25B/ref=sr_1_25?m=A2FEJAJXSFU2UV&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1524235467&sr=1-25&refinements=p_4%3ATopps

I use this one. A little pricey for a cardboard box. But all my standard graded cards fit.

This book about the N172 Old Judge set is absolutely top notch:

My personal opinion is that $15 is asking too much, for what it's worth.

Here's the only booklet one touch I could find

There ya go

Incredibly good answer, only parts /u/pauldrye left out would for advice, Topps has at least 5 different lines out that I can think of and they own other brands such as Bowman. Regular and Lineage have the newer look while heritage has the same look of cards 60 years ago and Allen & Ginter have the feel of tobbacco cards. But you can collect autos or patches, you mentioned the A's, its kind of cheating but you can buy all the 2013 topps cards As cards in a team set.

edit: links

This isn't the exact size you need, but its in the same vain.
