Popular Post KCOComics Posted January 13 Popular Post Share Posted January 13 Congratulations on the new approach. It wouldn't work for me, but I appreciate it works for many - One of the things I really enjoy about my collection is looking at the cover art. I love flipping through the boxes and looking at the covers. Dave2739, FineCollector1, BA773 and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i feel safety about the condition over the years because in fact a tons of books from my collection are from a seller that i know for a long time and who stored these comics like that before, its me who have put them individiually borded.

Ken Aldred Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) I never boarded (and bagged) absolutely all of my comics individually. Some were just 3 to a bag, never more than that. Edited January 13 by Ken Aldred BA773 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously what could really happen to my books? A guy on an other forum told me that the bags will start to stick between them about a time... i dont know how it could be bad... But seriously WE RE TALK ABOUT COMICS no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a "run" collector, if I'm missing a book I will leave a place for it, otherwise 2-per bag for the most part. kpaqu1 and KCOComics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA773 Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 (edited) I only has made 5 bags and realized something was not correct ... still to foldable and give too much oxygenation i tought , i need to make some real brick if i want to secure them, so i updated to 7 books per bags, this way it s just as much to can take them out when i want and also make a solid pack.

Sauce Dog Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Yup, my reading box is like this - I try to keep stories that are up to five issues long in a single bag, making it easy to grab em all and read. The only books I really care to bag/board (or archive sleeve) are pricy keys in my other three small boxes. BA773 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure none of em would be breaking the 9.4 grade any longer, but that wasn't ever a worry for these books since I like flipping through em casually. ttfitz and BA773 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
