Hepcat Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 (edited) Here's my comic cabinet. The comics are all in Mylites/Arklites with Thin X-Tender/Halfback backing boards. I have not yet properly filed all my magazines in the cabinet with the Mylites. I've now acquired another identical filing cabinet for the job of hosting all my magazines - Drag Cartoons, CARtoons, Hot Rod Cartoons, CycleToons, Mad, Creepy, Eerie, Vampirella, Nightmare, Scream etc. This will free up space in my first filing cabinet for the bronze age comics like JLA, Flash, Wonder Woman, Batman and Brave & the Bold that I've not yet bagged in Mylites and filed.

Ringfinger Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 So, how much can you fit in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 So, how much can you fit in there? I'll check that detail this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringfinger Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Yeah, I would like to know that, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Ringfinger: So, how much can you fit in there? About 3500 Silver Age size comic books will fit in the cabinet. It's a 42" wide, five high lateral filing cabinet. Right now, I have over 2100 comics stored in it plus the magazines. Given the fact that I now have two of the monsters sitting side by side, I should be good for another thirty years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heresy Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I still have some art that I need to get framed and a few more busts & statues to unpack but, for the most part, it's set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComicsAndCode Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Very nice. But I don't know if I would display my AF 15, FF 1 and Hulk 181 like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphael Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 i like the set up as well. i can also see what ComicsAndCode is talking about. For me, I'd be sure to have a rotation for certain books to switch out with the keys every so often to help minimize the light exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there's no sunlight in the room, I have very dark tint on that window. I don't think the 80 watt bulb in the ceiling fan will do much damage. Plus I hate to have my favorite books packed up where I can't see them all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcy1 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 very nice setup ( is it home made or you bought those thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heresy Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 very nice setup ( is it home made or you bought those thing) They are from Ikea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark72-migration Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Nice display but I wouldn't worry so much about light exposure as I would sticky fingers. I'm way too paranoid to put my books out on an open shelf like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringfinger Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Ikea rocks, but makes me spend too much money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
