After an injury and years of buying Amazing Spider -Man comics ( along with others) thought "what a great time to catch up on reading them. Uh,,,,, lets first get them in order-Uh...... and what a great time to board and bag them.. Uh........whats that you say? "what type of bags am you using-Polypropylene,Polyethylene or Mylar?'" Well I say...." Whats the difference?"
So I have always just bought the plain plastic bags with the acid free boards and now I am being told that they only last short term so that dream of my childrens childrens children becoming wealthy from all the years I have collectected all types of comics-just went up in mildew, mold dust??. So i draw the line . Everything from here on -less i hit the lotto and have this much time on hand -plastic is going to have to do then mylar kicks in-I'm loosing sleep now. So.........I keep with the line in the sand -those can simply go to some great grand kid that is not important? .....I'm loosing sleep again but ill be gone and can be cursed from the beyond.
Now------getting them in order-----I collected in the 70's for years I had my paper route (when comic where 15 cents-75 cents) = vol.1 comics and now there are 6 volumes but its not 1-6 ! its more like 1960's- 2010's but lets throw in a huge curve with the Superior Spider man and then restart it at 4. What happened to volumes 2 and 3? Thank God for Fandom and my Comic book vender -Daniel Ptaszek ,owner of "Comix Corner " in Fraser Michigan! I mean this guy is smarter than my tax consultant!........now back to my self made nightmare!! Can anyone relate?
