Just wanted a discussion about multipanel cards. I have seen 2,3,4 and 6 panel sketches from various card sets and think they are pretty cool. My only problem is how do you display them?

I love them! While they are hard to complete when pulled from pack. I think its a cool nod towards the puzzle backs on most cards.
Hey Noc, the have magnetic cases for booklets, which are mostly sports related. And are thick so there will be room left over. They also have photo sized top loaders.
Hahah its almost a crime to not display a multi panel sketch...

I really want to display that Acosta sketch I have. I may just frame it.

I think that would be your best bet to frame it. The various multi-cards holders all have a down side. That 4 panel Acosta should be framed anyhow it is a beauty!

You could get a comic sized top loader. Put it in and voila. But a frame would make it look ultra nice

That's great if they are all in a row but most are not. Most are squared with one in each corner. Like this one: I really, really want this one... only $400 on ebay.

I'm not a big fan myself, just because I don't feel very comfortable putting a multi-panel sketch in a regular 9-pocket page. They make some decent holders to display 2-panel puzzles, but beyond that the only thing available are those frames with the big black line between the cards which doesn't work well for displaying sketch puzzles.
Noc - What I have found that works well for puzzles like the one you have pictures is just using a properly sized toploader. So they cards, lined up they way they are, measure 5x7. You can buy a 5x7 toploaders and soft sleeves. Since the cards are so think and the depth of the toploader is so thin, they actually stay pretty damn nicely if you want to display them on your desk or on a shelf or something.
Also - The seller for that puzzle is a regular on Blowout. If you contact him off ebay I'm sure he'll give you at least 10% off that ebay price.

Seeing as it would likely end up stored away on a binder to rarely be viewed. The few panel sketches I have for MA are only 2 panel ones and they are kept in screw down cases and sit next to each other in a binder.

The only way I'd ever own a sketch that valuable would be if I was lucky enough to pull it. That sketch actually came from the IDW collectors set that retails for $400. I didn't think they were worth the cost! IDW Mars Attacks
