234wallst Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) Thanks Bronze Age. The room gets very indirect light in the room. And the glass isn't conservatory museum but blocks 99% uv TruView glass. I just couldn't lock them away, I need to see them everyday! I would not leave the books there. They will eventually fade, just not as quickly as if the glass didn't have any UV protection. All types of light will eventually lead to fading; emphasis is always on UV only because its the most damaging. BTW some great looking books!

Chadwick Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I'm still about 16 issues short of the whole run, but I just finished 1-10 of Tales of Suspense this past week. #1, 3, 5 and 7 came from other board members. Frankie will probably be working on his 1949 Timely run by the time I finish. I'm 1/10th of the way there, I love this run! Awesome copies man, thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see a lot of comic rooms and collections on these boards, such as the 'Have to got a comic room' thread, is it pretty much a case that everyone has their books in a room with no windows?

Not necessarily. The majority of my main Marvel collection is in my office that has a window but they're all stored in lateral file cabinets completely shielded from the sunlight.

I would be careful leaving any comic out. I understand people love looking at them and wanna display them but have the comic fade will crush you....and by the time you notice it is fading you may lose a lot of the eye appeal that made you love the comic. And the sickening feeling that you will get because YOU caused this to happen would be PRICELESS. Make high res scans of the comics you love and display those. Once in a while crack open the box and drool over them. That's why I love Club threads. It's an excuse to find my copy of that book and look at it again.

KirbyJack Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I don't have any comics out in the light, and I just recently took down all my art. Posters and cut up Marvel calendars adorn my room, and I like it fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Bronze age fan* Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Picked out four comics to send in with my yearly grading coupon. Hate having to choose the four comics every year. Such a hard decision. What do you guys think on the selections? And here is wishing luck on the grades. Something I see on the TTA #13 has me a little worried. [/img] Just got them back. Happy with the grades. [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
