Well, the sketches I'm looking to store aren't oversized, but. . . (Tue Nov 4 06:57:10 2003 )

Those are nice albums, but they're overkill for my
purposes. Those books expect library conditions 
and my house isn't a library. It's not climate 
controlled at all, and everything is stashed away 
in a dark place (with only me looking at, it as 
opposed to 1000 library patrons). So light is a 
non-issue, I can do little about temputure, and 
can't do anything about humidity. I can't achieve 
perfect archival conditions, so it's a waste of 
money to aim for that. The only real thing I see 
a need for is for the storage to be acid-free, 
and Itoyas could give me that, but. . .

. . .still unsolved is the physical problem of 
how to actually *arrange* these things so they 
have a reasonable level of protection, and can be 
fairly easily viewed, without taking up every 
closet in the house. There has to be someone out 
there with some realistic storage ideas.

It would be one thing if it were only a couple big
sets. But sketches are already now MORE numerous 
than the whole of my cel collection by per-sheet 
counts, and I have NOT been seriously collecting 
them for long at all. o_0;  So the problem isn't 
going to get better or go away until I find a 
whole new method of storing them. . .

Many Sharp Smiles,
--Drac
