I collect my Goudeys raw. Except in winter when I put on a robe.

My best advice, whether raw or robed, is to be barefoot. You are more likely to
sneak up on an unsuspecting Goudey that way. Brian (thanks for all the stacked compliments guys!) |

I love this. Old school collecting with fancy handmade dividers even. Great thread and pics. For the first time feel like I belong.

Thanks for the tips on the Mylar sleeves, guys. I hadn’t thought of that.

I'm really into putting things into the binders these days. I really want to be able to open it up and look at the cards from time to time. Does anyone have strong feelings on laying the binders flat or up, vertically like on a book shelf?

I’ve heard it’s best to store the binder with the ring at the top so the pages are dangling. That supposedly prevents damage to the cards closest to the ring. But I don’t know how true or necessary that is.

This is how I store my binders. Hanging from the spines so that the pages hang down with the force away from the rings. It also lets me lock the file cabinet with the binders safely inside.

If you place a binder on a shelf vertically, as you would a book, there is a risk that the weight of the pages will pull the back end down with binder opening up slightly and the pages contacting the shelf, leading to curling at the bottom of the pages -- and possibly the cards in the bottom slots. You can counter this by ensuring the front and back covers are tightly pressed against the pages or by using binder slip cases. The binder and slip case combinations sold by archival storage companies are very nice but also pricey. However, considering the value of what they're protecting, you might find them to be worth it.
