Default Displaying my Wheaties Cards

I decided to make a display for my Wheaties cards. I got the banner off of eBay, have metal strips, created 3D slab holders with my 3D printer, attached n52 magnets to the cases, and now I am in the process of printing as many slab holders I can. My goal is to get the entire set in SGC 6 or higher. I will have many cards in 4's, but if they have the full blue border, I will display until I can grade a higher version.

Is that Stan Musial banner an original piece from Wheaties or a modern creation for display purposes?

An art piece someone did. It would be in a frame if it was an original piece.

18 cards on the wall. Now to work on the next layers down. Two more to hang up and I have 10 more at SGC right now. Still have 30 cards to chase down and grade! If anyone has any full bordered versions, let me know.

Looks great Discodan! Not sure if I have ever seen any of these cards at shows but love what you did.
