Thought I might post this recent purchase as it is a funny shape, lol, and have a rather important question regarding storage. Not my exact card, just grabbed a photo from ebay for illustrative purposes because I am too lazy to take a photo. For those that have never seen this set before it is a 97-98 Ultra Ultrabilities "superstar" parallel. And for the young ones on this board, what was that I hear you say, "there's no jersey patch". The horror. Back in the day we did not have jersey cards or mass produced autographs. We had what is called inserts lol. A more classier and elegant era in the hobby I say.
On a more serious note, could anyone help in best way to store it. Only had one other die-cut in my life. Was very young and placed it in a snap tight case. Thought I was doing good by protecting it but it rattled around a bit and the rounded die-cut top got squashed and chipped. Don't want it to happen this time round with this card as it is worth quite a bit. I'd like to keep those corners at the bottom nice and sharp
Now back to my hidy hole
