Storage and Display for Americana: 
display cases  While items of Americana may well be very delicate and valuable, the fun of this category is in handling and using them.  They are also of sufficiently various sizes and shape that is is difficult to suggest a single means of storing them.  Certainly my display cases allow the item to be protected and yet removed for handling.   And if the item is TOO attractive, consider a display cases with locking doors.

drawer case For the smaller items, any of my drawer cases would serve, particularly the Multi Depth Drawer Cases.  This  has the added advantage of being very adaptable as to the depth of the drawers, as well as giving you the ability to change the drawers around as you need.  For the smaller items, check out either  Finished, or Built-In. display cases.
