A collector at my shop told me to stop bagging my comics flat
I used to store all my silver age books flat in short boxes because I thought it saved space. This old guy at my local shop in Denver said I was crushing the spines and causing stress folds. He showed me how standing them upright with backing boards actually keeps the staples from bending. Has anyone else wrecked a key issue by stacking them wrong?

Old guy at my local shop in Denver" probably knows his stuff but backing boards aren't really needed for keeping staples straight, they're more for preventing cover curl. You're right about standing them up though, that's the key.
