| How did you keep your comics as a kid before bags and boards? It seems like most of your books are in great shape all things considered | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Zevgoli Until 1954 the were kept stacked in a bookcase for easy reading. After that they were packed away in cardboard boxes until early 1970 when I placed them in bags and years later added boards to most of the bags. As a whole the books in my collection grade anywhere from 1.8 to 7.5. Somewhere along the way one of the boxes got wet and damaged some books which I note from time to time. Thank you for your interest.  OO Marty |
