I completed NM/MT sets of original series 1-9 a while ago, but am only now putting the cards in binder pages for display. This got me to wondering how others display their sets. Do you put them in binder pages? Keep them loose in top loaders? Stick 'em in the spokes of your Huffies (Huffys? Huffi?)?
And if you do display them in binder pages, do you keep the "a" cards separate from the "b" cards, or do you go a-b, a-b? Or do you go a-b-b-a in honor of the extra life cheat code for Ikari Warriors?
Let me know because my car is at the shop and I'm stuck in my apartment all weekend. If I don't get a sufficient number of responses I might do something I regret like buying four boxes of Norfin Trolls cards.

I used to have them in pages, but I had to be too careful with them. Now I don't need to worry

After upgrading my Huffy with carbon-fiber disc wheels, I moved my OS collection to UltraPro 9-pocket pages with each series stored in a 1" view binder using Mad Mike's binder inserts, separating "a" and "b" sets so the 9-card puzzle murals display correctly. Any variant cards (like OS1 award or OS4 Oak Kay) are stored at the end.

I wanted that bike so bad when I was a kid. But my parents wouldn't get me one. Later, my older sister said she'd take me to get Ron Darling's autograph, but then she didn't. Also this one time a rabid skunk almost ate my face. Ah, memories.

I display my GPK in 9-pocket pages and binders. OS1-15 fits in nicely into 4 one-inch binders for me. That's considering the fact that I collect OS1 Glossy, OS1 Matte, OS2 Matte, OS2 Glossy Tessie, OS2 Glossy Tessie, OS3 No Copyright, and OS3 Copyright as distinct sets.

That's the full run real deal OS2 set right there. Do you have the full variant set of all those or still collecting?

Damn, that's a hardcore collection! Well done sir. My OS1 and OS2 sets are a mix of glossy and matte. Don't @ me. (I saw that on twitter and thought it was sassy).

I keep all the cards I want to look at in top loaders w penny sleeves and the rest in 9 pocket pages in individual series binders. I rarely look thru the binders anymore but the top loaders are great to share when people come over and can rifle thru a stack safely. As for foreign cards. Complete albums or top loaders again..

My Glossy Tessy and Glossy Mike sets have 91 cards each (42a/b variants, 46a/b variants, 47a/b variants, 49b variants).

Anyone have the 30th Anniversary binder art PDF file that Mad Mike designed? Link is dead. All others are ok though.
