    Riker displays

    I had bought a few Riker displays from an online seller specializing in all types of display boxes and cases.
    They were pretty expensive. On a small local forum a hunting buddy said that the big online multi- dealer in Florida, had some for inexpensive prices. I bought the same sizes that I had bought from the specialty place to compare.
    When I got them they looked exactly the same and for less than half the price.

    You can go to a crafts store and get some 1/4 thick polyesther foam in colors and jazz up the displays.

    Here is a couple of mine I did up with some items.
    Some junk and good jewelry items and some relic items .

    I have a few of those display boxes also...I ended up using some cool colored & textured felt pieces I bought at Wallymart awhile back. Just cut them and fit them in overtop the foam...and they look great!

    I also bought over time a few glassed/locked display units that can be hung up! Bought them at a craft store...just painted them black satin, used foam and more colored & textured felt...they proudly display many of my silvers, old tokens & relics & pipe pieces thumbsup01
