first of all , I'm terribly sorry for late reply as my grandma recently got admitted to the hospital so I don't have much time to go online as of late , and thanks again everyone for your advice and input on how to properly store my collection especially since I'm a bit OCD when it come to my collections , sadly financial-wise as I'm still just a college kids , I'm limited to storing my comicbooks and some old books in an acid free plastic bag (which I then put them in a cardboard box and put the rest of them on a bookshelf in living room area). but reading through your guidelines I'm starting to developed some concerns regarding my collections, so hmm regarding the ironing thingy won't that cause the temperature in the room to fluctuate as well? since in one of the things you list not to do is to avoid placing the cabinet in places where the room temperature will fluctuate? and my collection is just in a cardboard box? and also one other thing I would like to ask since perfume contains alcohol is that dangerous towards my collection as well? (eventhough it's in plastic bag/sleeve I just would like to make sure). Again thanks so much for all the reply guys, I didn't expect this fast reply and very informative guidelines thanks!!! much appreciated !

Hi, I'm new to this forum , and I would like to ask for guidance regarding how to properly store comics (as I'm new to comics collecting in general) and also I have some concern as currently i'm living in a small apartment with one flatmate and she likes to iron her clothes in the living room sometimes I'm a bit concerned could the heat generate from Iron be enough to damage my collections by any mean? (since as far as I know Iron can heat up to around 200 C+ but I'm not sure how much heat will travel through the air). Thank you for any advice Nook
