I've been lugging around three long boxes for 20 years and just recently added another long box to my collection. Never had an issue with humidity. I haven'tlived near water, that is probably the key

Reynold Jay used to (still does?) store comics in a freezer system. Or his website said he did.

Which is incredibly dumb as a freezer or any cold room traps moisture.

 

It could've been "hucksterism". It had been so long since I'd been to his site. Pretty sure it must've been early 2000's when I read it there.

 

After my post yesterday, I went to the website to see if anything was there. I couldn't find it. Website was still very "old school" looking. He hasn't changed the format/layout since way back then. Just updated some of the content. His site is a step above Sulipa's, but not by much. And still not as "good" as Chuck's. lol

 

 

I remember reading that anecdote on ebay about storing comics in the freezer. lol I always pictured him walking into a cooler with books strung up like slabs of meat.
