Archival Storage Bags for Silver Age/Regular Comic Books - 50 Pack | 7 1/4" x 10 1/2" | 2 Mil Mylar Comic Book Sleeves | Clear Polyester

Hey True Believers, item description says 100 count item, but you'll receive one 50 count bag. Don't worry - this is a fair price for 50 bags, but don't think you're getting 100 bags here. Just an honest mistake, I'm sure. Basic details aside, these bags fit silver age books with backers very well and help make your books look great. Most importantly: My mutant power is "... Can immediately identify something irritating..." As you know, With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. I promise I will use my super power only for good or humor. Keep it real, Comic Fam!

I received just what I ordered and quickly too.

If you wanna protect your comics, these are well worth the investment.

So first, yes, they're expensive in comparison, but they're worth it in the long run. Anyone who has ever sat down to rebag and board their books because the poly ones became cloudy and somehow covered in dust from the bags breaking down knows it's a pain. Some may find it part of the fun but once you pay to do it several times, these make more sense. To start, they're absolutely crystal clear. If you hold up the same comic in a thick poly bag next to one of these, you will NEVER want to look at poly again. The colors pop, everything looks bright and like a presentation piece. They're also more rigid, so along with a board they add just an extra bit of stiffness, which is particularly great for corners. Not infallible but you get the idea. You need to crease the fold, but once you do it's forever creased, and depending on preference you can even get away without taping these. I switched to using these over poly for everything from signed books and sketches, to just the current runs of things. If you're into the tens of thousands of books it might not be worth it but if you're a casual collector and reader with only a few boxes it's worth it.

One silver age bag can hold several modern age comics, which makes a stiff enough package that backing boards aren't needed. For long-term storage that brings the per-comic cost of Mylar down to near that of "normal" bags, yet they are far better for your books. Take it from a guy whose pipes leaked behind the closet where his books were stored - bags are a good idea, and Mylar only needs to be changed every few decades. My 30yr old mylars look new, but my regular bags that old have turned GREEN and sometimes look like there's oil inside the bag. Cheap bags are for good for stores and short term (under 5yr) storage. Once you bag with mylar you don't have to worry about them or rebag before you're retired and can -actually- re-read your collection! These thin mylar bags were of very good quality, the vendor's shipping was fast, and multi-bagging makes Mylar an affordable alternative.

This product is great to preserve and protect your comics from the elements. I have been using it for years and it's great!

Yes, these bags are a bit pricey, but oh so worth it! I have bought around 3 to 4 hundred of them so far and they really protect the comics well and make the comics look so much better than the regular comic bags.

THE best bags for your comics! The only bag I will use. Get Silver/Regular bags if you collect Silver, Bronze and Copper ages, perfect fit!! These Mylar bags protect comic books for over 50 years of storage.
