How do you Display your collection?

Re: How do you Display your collection?

My last sports room before my move. Dedicated to history of THE University of Minnesota Gophers football team. Part of my Gopher football collection is displayed along w/ my Big Ten, small Minnesota colleges, Minnesota high school helmets, and a few others. I build the entire room myself out of 4 bare basement walls. The "helmet room" has the 20 yard line from Jack Trice Stadium (Iowa State). Enjoy the pics.

Re: How do you Display your collection?

Yeah they are awesome. Do you know if they are CREE LED? or are they Phillips? The CREE are much better and brighter. CREE are pretty much the top dog when it comes to LED, Phillips being the larger company tho has the edge.

Anyone looking to buy / use LED's should really consider making the investment into CREE LED's

I'm partial to supporting a small "Made in America" company out of Florida named Lighting Science Group. They sell their LED bulbs under the Ecosmart brand at Home Depot and have more energy star products than any other company. I have them in my house to display my items.

That's why I've invested (and at their price, they are an investment) in LED bulbs. They cost a ton, but 0% UV.

Re: How do you Display your collection?

I am surprised some people are not concerned about UV fading their signatures or items. Just because there is no windows in a display room does not mean they wont fade. Even those compact florescent bulbs give off UV.

Hey Joba,

The one with him wearing the PITTSBURGH STEELERS hat were taken in Harrisburg, PA about 2-3 years ago, and the one with him by the mini helmet was at Hagerstown, MD maybe a year and a half ago. All the items he is signing were for me, but the jersey was a gift for a family member. I still have the mini, sadly sold the FS helmet to pay for a full set of new brakes over a year ago (oh well).

I have sent you a PM as well. Thank you.
