I have Auotgraphed Baseballs how do i store them?

Question

I'm going on a 4 month work trip. Should I order uv ball cubes or can i leave them in the box they came in just some where cool and dark? Whats better?

Answer 1

i think that you should use the cubes i have a baseball that i have had over many years and its still in great condition!  

Answer 2

A box will hold moisture and ruin the balls. Not something you really want them stored in. So get some UV cubes, and as nice as it would be to display them. Keep them out of light even with the UV cubes. After about 5 years in sunlight you'll notice them starting to fade, and by the time your kids inherit them. They'll wonder why their parent gave them blank balls stored in a cube.

I buy all my protective stuff from http://www.bcwsupplies.com They make great stuff at good prices in my opinion.

Answer 3

i would leave em in the box in a cool dark place nothing bad will happen and if in the box they might be worth more!!

Answer 4

ball cubes. you can find some stuff at www.steinersports.com

Answer 5

I would order some of the ball cubes to store them in.  This would protect them from dust, etc.  Then store them in a safe place that's not in the sun while you are gone.

Answer 6

get some ball cubes

Answer 7

You should store them in the toilet bowl tank. They will stay nice and moist there

Answer 8

You should put the baseballs in a tube sock and put the sock in a closet or something similiar. I've done this with all my autographed balls and it works wonders!
