Tips for Storing Your Comic Book Collection

by Candace Right

If you have a valuable comic book collection, there are several ways to store it. Comic book storage comes in several forms.

One of the most important things to remember is to keep them in specially made containers designed specifically for storing comic books or paper. That means anything you use for cardboard or paper storage (ie, comic books) should be lignin-free and acid-free. If you use plastic storage, it should be PVC-free.

You should also store your collection away from direct light, preferably in a climate controlled environment. The average shed or upstairs attic is obviously not ideal!

You have a lot of different choices as far as choosing items in which to store your comic books. Individual plastic sleeves or acid-free resealable bags are great for special comics, although very valuable specimens should be kept in plastic boxes designed for comic book storage. When using plastic sleeves or bags with adhesive, make sure that tape or adhesive doesn't touch the books themselves.

Plastic comic book boxes can be found at collectibles shops or storage and organization stores. Alternatively, you can now find Mylar comic book sleeves that have treated cardboard backing boards, which add a little structure to the container.

So, once you have all your more valuable books tucked away in their special containers, it's about time to figure out how to store the rest of the collection. You'll find that there are lots of different kinds of boxes that you can buy in comic book stores or online. They come in two different sizes. The short ones will holds about 100 books, while the longer ones can hold up to 300.

But there's more to storing your comic books than just protecting them from damage. You also need to give some thought about how you want to organize them. The most common way to organize comic books is by title, then in chronological order based on the date of publication. Whether you want to read them in the future or sell them, you'll be able to quickly and easily find any comic book you want in an organized comic book storage system.
