wow! What a collar tabs collection! It's great! Thanks for sharing.

I wouldn't suggest pinning these beautiful tabs with stick pins, not only will it leave holes but also may rust and bleed into the fabric.

-- Good point CBH. I never thought of the rusting/bleeding angle. I'm unhappy with the pinning and have been considering perhaps Velcro or two-sided tape? Suggestions?

Apply another layer of foam to fill the space, (possibly another layer of backing material), and use the pressure against the glass to hold them in place.

+1 that's what I do or I just display stuff lying down. The stick pins made me flinch when I saw them.
Super nice and impressive assortment of Pz. tabs!

-- Brilliant idea. Thanks! I'll visit the local craft store and see if I can purchase some black foam of various thickness to do this. If they don't have it perhaps a local foam supplier will.
If I'm doing this correctly I believe the steps should be . . .
1. First I'll lay the back of the shadowbox down
2. Then cut a piece of foam and lay it inside the box
3. Next I'll lay the hard backing against the foam in step 2
4. Then I'll cut another piece of foam and lay that against the hard backing in step 3
5. Align my collar tabs on the piece of foam in step 4
6. And then lastly, take the glass front of the shadowbox and press it down on what I just did and secure the two halves. If I did it correctly all the collar tabs should be snug against the glass and not move around.
