    Fabulous score Alex. To be that close to a complete Kirby FF run is exciting. Hopefully you can convert those extras into those early FF you need. Completing a classic run like this is a special kind of nerdy accomplishment.

    Have a question about your mylars. What size bags and boards are you using for these FF comics. I have a collection of FF myself and want to move them from the old poly bags to mylar. From watching your channel I can see that they present better.
    thank you.

    • @AlextheComicHoarder
      @AlextheComicHoarder  4 роки тому

      Robert G thanks for the question. The Mylar I use is E Gerber Mylite 2 (2ml) Standard Size. I also use Standard Size Fullbacks. The reason I use that size is the Comics fit into the Shortbox perfectly. The silver/gold size is just too big to go back into the box. With that said silver/gold could be a better size for the comics, because it will leave plenty of board on all size behind the comic. That is important as the bags are pretty tight with the books in there. Also be very careful putting the books in. Mylar is sharp.

That is a grail level book in my opinion. So I have consolidated a lot of my collection to that book and a few other very nice keys.
