This is an incredible thread, but it also shows how little I really know about protecting my books for the long-term. Thanks to all who have spent countless hours researching paper conservation/preservation and the effect of pressing on a comic's long-term condition.
Would someone be able to summarize the current recommendations for CGCd books versus raw? I know the real intent of the thread was to study the pressing concerns, but it would be a shame not to reinforce the message of proper conservation/preservation techniques for those new to this thread.
I never thought of buying archive paper for my collection, but always went with traditional bags/boards and periodic changeout every few years.
Is there a separate thread that contains recommendations already? If there is, so sorry to hijack this fantastic thread.
