Title: Board game display case
Post by: Wolfman on December 10, 2023, 10:31:17 AM
Does anyone know where to buy a nice clear, acrylic display case for vintage board games? I'm doing an internet search without much luck so far.

Here's a Monopoly size case. 6 for $50. Not sure if there is a standard size for brd game boxes?

What you really need is a cabinet to store a whole bunch of board games and other cool collectibles. Here's a good one for Cdn.$44.28:

Me I try very hard to prevent that necessity. That's why all my collectibles go in cabinets with doors.

ShopPopDisplays makes custom sizes to fit just about anything. That's where I'll be getting mine for my Godzilla board game.

But don't you have many neat items you'd like to nicely display, e.g. your recently acquired SPP Frankenstein plaque?

Don't want to put that behind glass. That can stand on its own just fine.

Game is complete. Box condition I would describe as VG-EX
