Hi ,i just got a Michael Vick pink game used glove against the 49ers and autographed ,plus have a photo of him with the glove,i was wondering whats the best way to display it such as items and websites where i can find something fairly cheap but good in terms of UV also to preserve the glove.
Or maybe a shadow box with 2 displays attached to each other,one side with a photo,the other with the glove?
Let me know ideas and ways for me to also preserve it and not destroy it as i dont want to use pins to hold the glove...

Thank you

I get a lot of my shadow boxes from Michael's and they run sales on them a lot. Here is a game worn glove I got from Dwight Freeney and I printed a photo I found from the game wearing the glove he gave me.

Here's how I mounted a pair of gloves and a photo:

There use to be a post on the site with some Lavarr Arrington Signed Game Used Gloves framed on the site that looked great but it looks like the image is no longer available. I have a pic of some batting gloves I had framed. I will try to take a pic of it tomorrow and post

You can't see the depth from the angle of picture but the gloves sit about a 1/2 inch in from matting to give the shadow look
