- How to take care of your Autographs and Memorabilia
CHECK OUT OUR ONLINE MEMORABILIA STORE HERE https://www.superstarspeakers.co.uk/memorabilia We love autographs and memorabilia at Superstar Speakers and we understand just how much it means to you. Its a tangible memory of a once-in-a-lifetime moment meeting a sporting icon. It can also be an investment that may rise in value over time or just a great way to decorate a man cave or bar 1. Frame it or Case it Whether its your favourite football shirt, a montage of iconic moments, a programme from an iconic match or even something 3D like a boxing glove or a football boot - protecting it from everyday dangers such as rips and spills and tears. Not only does a frame or case offer this level of basic protection - there is more to a frames job than that. A professional frame will use UV protective glass to help prevent the natural UV rays and Sunshine affecting the colours of the signed item and worse still causing the signature to fade and disappear. in addition to this a shirt should be pinned rather than glued and an acid free mount will protect the item and ensure its chances of lasting without losing quality Contact us for a framing quote https://www.superstarspeakers.co.uk/framing 2. Keep it High It seems simple - but basically make sure you display your items! Its one thing keeping them as an investment and hoping that they increase in value, but there's no reason you cant enjoy them too. Keep framed items on walls where you can - or at the very least away from moisture and damp in areas such as garages and basements (unless they are suitably protected rooms) moisture is no good for most items as it causes mould and rot which ruin both the value and look of the item, and even the wood on a frame. Worst case is it eats away the signature and ruins everything! 3. Avoid Sunshine and UV rays Even Clayton Blackmore's signature can't handle too much sunshine! In all seriousness natural sunlight and UV rays will cause both the signature and the item to fade, affecting the overall look and value of your item. Avoid placing signed memorabilia in direct sunlight, opposite windows or in conservatories etc. UV protected glass will help, but to give your item the best chance of maintaining its integrity 4. Avoid Over-Handling We all love showing off our memorabilia - even if its a good humble brag, but resist the temptation to over handle your items - the natural oils and acids in your skin will eventually wear away the item or the signature. From programmes with foxed edges or thumb prints and smears to weathered shirts and less than pristine items. Resist the temptation!

- Your Framing and Display Options for your Memorabilia
By reading this blog we understand that you love memorabilia - Its a small piece of a life long passion and hobby, a symbol of a moment where your life and your heroes life intertwined. You own something your favourite superstar has touched and signed to say they have. Its a fantastic thing that we love collecting and owning But what is the best way to enhance, protect and display your items, like the precious works of art that they are. Very Simply - Framing. We recently wrote a blog on how frames and case protect and take care of your memorabilia, which you can read here This blog brings together all of our framing options for you to choose from and decide which is best for you and your items Shirt Frames An absolute classic. The signed Football shirt is everyones favourite item. The perfect match of Superstar and the eras that they played in. Shirts become iconic to the era in which they where played in, with hints of the fashions and styles of the decade they were worn to becoming associated with specific moments in the clubs history (think Eric Cantona's Kung Fu kick in the black Man Utd away shirt - to Newcastle's Grandad collared classic in the 'touching distance' season) These shirts, signed by the men who made them famous are the jewels in any collection of memorabilia and deserve to be protected and made to look even better. The Superstar Speakers Shirt frame is customizable - you can choose the colours of the inner and outer mount (although we recommend sticking with your teams colours) and two photographs of the superstar who has signed the item in their prime and a custom metal plaque. Its the perfect way to display your shirts like the art work that they are, decorate your man cave and create a talking point. 2. Display Cases Not all items of memorabilia sit nicely in a flat frame, there are a lot of 3D items signed and still deserve the protection and presence of a framed shirt. Boxing Gloves, Balls (from all sports), Boots and more are all fantastic items of memorabilia that deserve to be protected and displayed. These items form the basis of great collections, there's nothing quite like a shelf full of signed boxing gloves or footballs to create a stunning display in your home. Superstar Speakers create custom cases for your beloved items - hand crafted bases with the option of artificial grass and a metal plaque that completes the look of the piece 3. Photo Upgrade Frame If you have ever been to one of our events you will have seen these upgrade frames. There is always an option to purchase these after you have had your picture taken with the Superstars. We believe they are a great way to enhance the look of the photo and they look great hanging on your walls, especially if you are lucky enough to get your photograph signed. These frames come with space for your photograph, 2 smaller photos of the Superstar in action and a metal plaque. Just let us know who you want in your frame and we can create it for you! 4. Bespoke Frames We have framed all sorts of weird and wonderful things - and will continue to do so! From Army medals to Boxing Belts. Everything can be framed and these achievements deserve to be recognized and displayed. Obviously every item is different and comes with its own challenges, but we can do it!
