Option 3: Framing extra-special signed & cardboard sleeve cases

Why take extra care over these types of physical media?

• They hold both sentimental and monetary value, appreciating over time.
• The sun can bleach colours and ink-based signatures, as well as cardboard print.
• Be careful of compression. Store them upright in a glass cabinet for safe visibility.
• Protect them by placing them in protective plastic sleeves to prevent wear.

What are the benefits of keeping physical media in mint condition?

• By framing video games, or any physical media, you're protecting a future investment
• You will avoid corner dents, accidental drops and knocks.
  
  

In conclusion: Should I make my game collection a display?

However, at Cheevo, we give you the best option to display your media. With UV protection and personalisation, keep them safe from sunlight whilst admiring them.
