Question for the folks with really formidable collections- Where do you keep the headers and bags? And how do you organize them? phil |

Mine are in a giant plastic storage bin in the basement. Very unorganized though. Might be a project for today. Thinking of tossing the actual plastic bags though. Are they really necessary? It's the cards that matter. |

 and I use the expandable file pocket things, so if I have to pull one out stuff isn't just falling out of the sides, and I just sort them by company. I also put a note in the bag so I know what bag and header goes with what.. |

I remembered this from a old thread. I still have'nt done that but should .. Darth Hank wrote: Darky wrote: Darth Hank wrote: I really like the book LivingDead put together. It's super organized. As silly as it is, I've always wondered what other people do as well. I just have all my headers in a box right now. I think I'm going to start labeling them with post it notes.

I put the head card into the bag , and fold the bag , stored in a large drawer . It's that simple, though sometimes can not find the header card and bag fast, but I am sure each of the header card come with his original bag. |

the photo album makes so much sense. I just have a plastic box and i have recently ran into a issue of finding a particular header. And writting down which header goes to what makes a ton of sense too. |

I started just putting them in a drawer, then I had to start removing other items from the drawer, now, they just own the whole drawer. They are fairly organised, mainly by sculpt. |

i usually toss the bags. unless it's the rxh 2mil ziplock bags, those now are used to store my motu and various american action figures until i can work a better display set-up for them. or, printed bags (m1go, lash stuff, etc) go with the headers. anyways, the headers i lay out flat and put them into a comic book bag and board and file into a comic storage box, mixed right up on my shelf with all the other boxes of actual bagged and boarded comics. |

Huh, these are interesting way people handle the headers. I keep the headers in a small photoalbum, and the ones that are too large for the photo album go in a clothing box. But my collection is a small one. Not much really at all. Phil |

Love the photo album idea, but definitely need some kind of labeling/cataloging system to figure out what goes with what (short of sticky notes). |

an idea i have had, but am not at all a wood craftsman and would rather spend money on more toys than to have this done by somebody. anyways, what i thought would be cool would be a shadow-box type coffee table. a 6-10" deep box inside the center of a coffee table with a glass window overtop (for those that are confused by my mention of a shadowbox). that way you can just lift the glass/slide out the drawer & toss them in and be able to view the kickass artwork in a messy-style display window... |
