  • In this video I go into the types of bags & boards I use in my comic collection. I get into specifics and show examples. I talk about what types you should NOT use. I also talk about why I always say NO to TAPE!

    After more than four decades collecting and reading comicbooks and related pop culture (TV, movies, video games, etc) as of 2022 I am sharing reviews/overviews of my collection. The plan is at least one new video every Monday!

    Hi, Larry! I love your channel and have been catching up on your backlog. This video convinced me to finally take the mylar plunge. You weren't kidding about the time involved! Very therapeutic process and they look gorgeous in the E Gerbers. Thank you 🤘

      You are welcome! Glad this helped! Mylar makes any comic look better for sure!

    Spot-on! I agree with everything you said. Current size is just too small, in my opinion even for moderns. That extra margin helps protects the edges and corners against accidental bumps and drops. Just don't shake them vigorously and bang and slam the comic back and forth.

    Thank you for this video! I’m getting into buying single issues and was trying to figure out what I needed. This will be a big help.

    I bought once from E Gerber but the shipping was the killer. I found another company that I really like but they often run out of stock. Showing off those sigs!!! I guess I need that fold and tuck for my clear backing board stored comics.

      Last time I ordered even with the shipping it still turned out cheaper than anyone else.

    Fold. Crease. Cut. Tuck. Reminds me of Om mani padme hum. Its like a collectors mantra, perhaps somewhere in the multiverse, a version of the golden age buddhist crimefighter Green Lama is repeating those words as he cares for and curates his pulp comic collection. "Fold. Crease. Cut. Tuck."

    Nice informative video thanks. Just thinking for cutting the taper on the flap, maybe one of those mini-guillotines or paper trimmer slicers if your needing to do a lot of cuts? Not sure on the flipping through the comics in the bin but I've gotten into the habit of having the flap at the bottom rather than the top, just a thought.

    • @LarrysLibrary
      @LarrysLibrary  4 місяці тому +1

      Interesting ideas! I think those paper cutters (at least the office kind I had used at work before) are probably too big for the flaps.
