How Many Combinations 8

Bound and boxes or storage boxes - Considerations

As commented in previous posts, if we want to keep our comics are in doubt about whether bound or otherwise store. Without pretending to teach doctrine on the subject, I'll simply exposing some of the considerations that I have done to make subsequent decisions.

is no doubt that some comics are well bound to have a longer life in principle to be protected from unnecessary movements wrinkles and good decks. However, before making the decision to group them under binding we think that unless they are very close all the songs, at least going to be crippled in the loins to make a few small incisions through which pass the yarn for sewing. All this regardless of the time from its potential market value becomes half or so. But hey, we will not enter into consideration as material to a material that we like and with whom we enjoy, simply note that precision if it helps someone who does not control the issue to make a decision.

Accordingly, I would have to go to the traditional binding (except for obviously personal issues) in those cases where the comics have their backs broken, or come and binding (see previous posts in this blog), or have leaflets or other damage that will presumably eventually more.


So we will briefly alternative storage boxes, the possibilities are unlimited and fully cover both the role of storage as the conservation and exhibition of our comic books in any library. As shown in the pictures you see some boxes that I designed for the original collection of Little Black Panther dividing it into three cases that appear in our library so many volumes. They are built with solid material and the cover is made of cloth binding on which is printed in a design based on the covers of the comics of this character.

In the first of the pictures you can see even small strips that serve to extract the signatures because the boxes have been built to move as little as possible, but it is easier to access without damage to the leaves before any wrinkles.


These kits I've come to develop in many different ways to allow all types of elements in its construction, leather, cloth, paper, etc ... and combinations with other elements as we shall see in the future.
also be thought that as a way to get started in the conservation of comics does not require expensive materials and we will not spoil anything. If we do not go well at the first and the second will, but the comics will not hurt. Successive entries

-tutorial exercise will consist in carrying a box of these or similar features to an old collection of comics. Doubts

you know that you can raise them in the email address listed to the right, and if disponeis a collection of specific comics you wanted to make a case you can also propose and could make it together.
