I am a massive baseball fan from Scotland & have been watching spring training & I was wondering how would I go about getting a bat signed by my 4 favourite Yankee players Kuroda, Matsui, Ichiro & Tanaka (if possible).

Any help &/or tips are greatly appreciated.

Would this binder be able to house my 660 card collection comfortably or not & if not what would you recommend?.

Any help is appreciated.

QUOTE(northicehero99 @ Feb 27 2011, 02:50 PM)
1. The entire collection has 245 cards in the series  & I was just wondering  if storing them in an album would it be better to store them back to back or singularly?.  Depends on your preference.  When I put base sets into pages I look at using less pages, but everyone has different preferences.  I rarely care about the back so I store them back to back, except for expensive cards like rookies or inserts, but if you like to read player stats or the cards are dual sided you may want to do singularly.  It also depends on the cards stock thickness.  Really thin cards fit well back to back but thicker cards only fit one per slot. I look at this as is the card easily replaceable should I ding it, then if yes, I put it in back to back.  Base cards typically fall into this category for me.

2. If storing them singularly how many pages would I need to store my collection?.  this is 245 divided by 9 or 27.2 pages = 28.  Don't forget to add a few pages for inserts, parallels, etc.

3. Similarly if I was storing my collection back to back how many pages would I need to store my collection?.  this is 245 divided by 18 or 13.6 pages = 14.  Again you might need more for inserts, parallels, etc.

Thanks for the great help northicehero99, really appreciate it.

I really do not see what poeple are getting all bent out of shape for, as a brit who used to collect panini trading cards back in the day and I must say they produced a very solid product and as for it being cheap and tacky take a look at some of their soccer cards and tell me they don't know what they are doing.

The NBA is in safe hands with panini.

Couple of quick questions, when Cataloguing your collections what is the best way to store them and also how do you list them e.g: by team, alphabetically and so on.
