I've always wondered if there was someone on the East coast making those things too.

 

A lot of dealers have home-made ones too. (And then you have CW of Fantastic Comics and his massively over-engineered comic racks.)

 

For slabs, I prefer the cheap wooden racks that you make from Home Depot parts.

I wanted a rack for home display of my comics and built one myself. This one cost under a 100 bucks using standards parts available at Home Depot and is very stable. I'm a complete klutz and used no power tools so I'm confident when I tell you that it isn't hard at all to make.

 

I wouldn't suggest this design as being lightweight for the convention circuit but then that wasn't my intention. It is, however, easy to break down and put up, though with a slight design tweak it would be even easier.

 

This rack is 8' wide x 7.5' high and holds 11 or 12 comics per row depending on how close you line them up. It looks pretty impressive filled up.

Nice! How about a picture with it all filled up with your "precious"

Sure. Might need to buy a few more books for the collection.

At least it appears like you are planning for the future!

While I love putting up sets of books on the rack, I don't usually post pictures because the photos don't usually turn out well due to the glare off of the mylars.

 

Here's a pic for the Marvel Zombies

 

Unfortunately they are all pre-hero cr@p

Thanks, I think. I've never had guy say that to me. Nor a a girl for that matter.

 

The display rack is fun in person but if I'm creating something for online that approximates seeing the display then I prefer combining scans in Photoshop, like the example below.
