Comic Book Storage – Don’t Make These Mistakes
Many people love comics. They are a collection of both art and writing that is unmatched by any other medium. if you have a great comic book collection, you’ll want to investigate comic book storage in order to protect your books from untold catastrophe.
The first thing you need to know is that keeping a comic book in pristine condition is the only way to maintain its value. To do this, you’ll need to read the book very carefully with very clean hands. The oils from your hands can ruin the pages.
The next step in proper comic book storage is to put the books in individual Mylar Sleeves. These sleeves are acid free and waterproof to protect your collection as much as possible. Always include a board backing so there is no chance for your comic to get bent.
When you put the comic in the bag, make sure that the comic book is against the white side of the board backing. Since your Mylar sleeves are acid free, you’ll need to make sure the board is acid free as well.
Once you’ve bagged and boarded each individual comic, you’re ready for the next step in comic book storage. You’ll want to get a comic box. These come in long or short sizes depending on your needs. The comics should be placed in the box so that they are standing up straight.
The best thing for you to do is list the titles, release date, version, and issue number inside the box. This is a great method that prevents you from having to frequently unbag the comics just to determine a statistic about it. Remember, the more you handle your comics; the more chance there is to damage them.
You may be wondering where to find these supplies. Thankfully they are readily available in comic book supply stores. If there are none of these in your area, you can find many shops available online. These are very convenient because they will ship your storage supplies right to your home.
Taking the time to do comic book storage the right way is the best thing you can do to protect your collection. You have probably spent a lot of time hunting for the best comics so you’ll want to take the best care of them. Gather up your storage supplies and your comics will be protected for years to come.
