jbcomicbox Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 JB Thanks for sharing. I'm even more impressed that so much of your art is framed and on display. DM I never understood the concept of just 'sticking' the art away and not being able to get the 'tingle'. Of course, as you can see, I am way out of room. The art 'erupts' in other areas of the house to the extent such is permitted by my more than understanding wife. jb Here are some 'non-comic room' shots that (inadequately) handle my overflow.....jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if you worried about their condition in the frames and whatnot. Saw a Whiz 2 (dream book) and had a panic attack. So awesome. -Rob- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So awesome. -Rob- Rob- If you are inquiring about the comics that appear on the outside of long boxes, they are the comics themselves (I have other copies). This room has no windows. The books are in mylar with backing boards. Of course, "nothing expensive" is there on the outside. Before I had to hang art over them, the comic on the outside help me identify which box had what. I needed all the help I could organizing the 18,000+ books. GA stuff is kept elsewhere as some of the pictures indicate. (And yes, I am very, very out of room).

Silver Surfer Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Wow that looks cool but the tempature swings and moisture must reak havoc with those books? You could have mold all over them one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str8rcn Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Not a dedicated comic room but I do display some of my comics along with my other autographs. In this picture you can see some of my CGC SS comics along with my favorite collectible which is my Return of the Jedi Original Movie Poster signed by almost the entire cast including Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher,Harrison Ford,George Lucas,John Williams (the composer) and quite a few others. In this pic you can see my wife's favorite collectible which is a signed and framed Venus Williams warm up jacket.Above the comics is a Shaquille Oneil signed and graded card whic was the first one graded by that company so they sent me a nice letter/COA which i framed. In this pic you can see more of my other signed pieces,mostly sports cards.Also my flat panel with surround sound so when i want to watch a movie that my wife doesn't like I can come to my room and blast it.It also doubles as my computer monitor with wireless keyboard and mouse so I can kick back and surf the CGC forums in comfort.
