Football fanatics, for instance, seem to prefer their display cases to be made with the high-quality wood. An acrylic lid on the display case prevents their sports memorabilia from gathering dust and at the same time showcases their collection from any angle they want it to be viewed.
Basketball enthusiasts, like football fans, want to protect their memorabilia of basketball caps and jerseys signed by their favourite superstars. Hand-made acrylic cases with a removable acrylic lid are convenient if the collector also wants to clean his memorabilia from time to time.
NASCAR or car racing fanatics prefer die-cast metals to be the display cases of their memorabilia. Woods tends to be attacked by termites, and so their collection would be ruined. Thus the die-cast base is the best and most appropriate one for their sports memorabilia.
