I've had this vintage Dead Milkmen setlist in storage for a while now. Any tips on possibly removing the duct tape without damaging it? Thx in advance  |

| Sunday night during the SDCC After Party at The Local Eatery & Drinking Hole, having a drink with Diana Schutz & Mike Royer, and these 3 guys kept making a lot of noise (Aragones, Simonson, and Bud Plant). And I believe that's [the back of] Dennis Kitchen to the left of Sergio.  |

Easton Press printed deluxe leather bound editions of the first six novels.   The entire Burroughs collection has also been collected into four omnibus size editions.   Can’t recommend these highly enough! |

Came across these cards that I forgot about. My grandmother was British and we used to visit England a lot when I was younger. I picked up these old cigarette cards at an airshow sometime in the 80s      |

| A 9.9 of that book is amazing, even without the misprinted, multiple covers. I wonder what it would fetch at auction? I’d guess a couple grand. Maybe more? |

Saw this a while back and Figured I would try one out. Some assembly required, and quite a bit more expensive than cardboard. Anyone else using them?   |

| @esaravo I've seen them sold at some local shops. About $30 I think. Say they're good for transporting and storage. I thought about getting a couple for the more valuable slabs. | ||

| My old long boxes from 1992 finally gave and I replaced them with plastic corrugated boxes. They come regular sized or graded comic sizes. On Ebay they even have a couple of colors. They feel significantly stronger. Here is a site that sells, but Ebay also sells them at a good price when they are on sale. http://www.bagsunlimited.com/product/5410/bultra-boxxb-font-colorredplastic-corrugatedfontbrbfont-color2e4053-compact-comic-storage-box-bfontbr11-x-7-1316-x-11-brholds-up-to-100-comics |

| @Darkseid_of_town I'm a sissy so I bought short boxes. =( But it turns out short boxes are much easier to manipulate. A wire Costco shelf and a few boxes helped declutter a room. (Yes, the room is decluttered, if you saw before youd be appalled.  |

Here is something I did a while ago...its not ideal but it works as a comic solution for more sightly storage  Each shelf can hold about 2 short boxes worth of comics. It's all ikea stuff, the shelf unit is a Billy, the holders are flagellaks or some shit  We remodeled recently so a bunch of my stuff had to be downsized or made to look better for storage in a common area |

| @Enelson It kinda looks like it belongs in a doctor's office. I like the glass doors. I would imagine it helps tremendously with dust.... |

Yes keeps dust out. Only flaws is its difficult to locate a particular issue at times and you cant use every shelf with the little holder boxes. I have these 2 in our living room I also have this for all the trades  That's from ikea too, think it was a hennes or farvegnugen |

Just acquired this beauty. A custom made bound volume of Hot Stuff Sizzlers issues 1-4. All the issues are 84 page Giants and are in excellent condition with exceptional whiteness! This is not a Harvey bound office volume. Whoever put this baby together did so with an eye to quality, including a stamped image on the front cover from a Warren Kramer drawing. I just love those 84 page Giants and they are very hard to find in grade. There were only a handful produced as the page count was reduced to 64 pages when the price of regular comics increased from 10 to 12 cents.      |

Quote:Originally Posted by Studley_Dudley That's exactly what I did, Mike, I put my "best" slabs in it. The cost with tax was right around $30, which is too much in my opinion. But you can get that price down to around $20 each if you buy 5 or more (and then they will throw in free shipping too). At $20, it seems much more reasonable. |

| @michaelekrupp - That's a great looking bound volume! PS - Take a look at the stamp on Issue #1; could it have been a Pence copy? |

| @esaravo Thanks! Not sure what the significance of the stamp on the cover of #1 is. It definitely has an American 25 cent price on the cover. | ||

@michaelekrupp - Not all comics sold in England had pence versions, or US versions were sold, so they would stamp the covers. Here's an example I just found on Google of a stamped book. |
