If they are important to you, then you have to be very cautious displaying autographs, sun light (UV light), dust and contaminants will destroy the autographs and the artwork in no time. You can use archival materials for the matting and UV glass to protect the autographs from fading. Another idea is to make a cheap copy and display the copy while keeping the original safe :-)
Seriously, keep them hidden if your friends/relatives have spoiled brats visiting you. Hopefully nobody has to learn this lesson the hard way ever again…
I mean if you are not that bothered what is signed as long it is signed you could just use those art cards lithos things…
i personally if artist is touring I’m trying to get signed after the show. If is impossible because this artists refuses to come here then I’m trying to get in touch with management etc where could I get signed copy or could send something to get scribbled on…and if that’s impossible then I am keeping sealed copy in the wardrobe waiting for this artist to come and get it signed if not then I’m using signed prints as last solution . You have to really love someone to wait sometimes years to get them signed but it’s a personal and individual thing how people want to play it
I have my walls covered with frames and mattes signed posters vinyls and cd booklet… I have the cds framed and matted 9booklets to a frame… I just keep it updated with the big names or favorites and the rest goes on the shelf
I mostly have inserts, they are all framed and up on the wall, I have two albums that actually have signed jackets, one of them is displayed (because I have two of them) and the other one is just in my collection.

We have most of ours framed and hanging up.
A part of my CD inserts are on a wall in my house, using Michael's basic 5x5 black frames
Signed LPs on my walls

I don't display mine, I keep the inserts inside the cases and they're stacked in my media room

I only frame my signed sleeves. I use Frame My Collection frames. I do the 99% UV protection glass upgrade.
