Marty, I’d try a comic book store for different types of archival storage methods and supplies. Comic books are prone to exactly the same kind of damage as magazines, and most big cities have at least one comic book store.
Karl/Dave,
TWO excellent ideas, I’ll, do a search tonight, see what I can find.Thanks![:p]
If nothing else what about Zip Lock Bags?[%-)]
I keep them, and I’m trying to put them into the official binders.

And by the way, don’t recycle any of them. I’m sure there’s someone in your area who’s only starting in the hobby, and would like to have them much more than the recycle bin would–who knows, you might start some little kid in a hobby to be enjoyed for years, just by giving, instead of throwing, away those magazines.
See you around the forums,
In an effort to get students to read more, the local school library has developed reading carts, stacked with a variety of materials, that they pu***o various classrooms through out the year. I have donated many model train magazines for this use over the years…who knows what kid will see a magazine that raises his interest in model railroading. Also, I have taken surplus magazines to the hospital. They place them in the various waiting rooms. These or other places might welcome magazines that pelple are going to pitch…and I know I personally feel good that someone else gets to enjoy the magazine again.
I also shipped a whole crate over to the chaplain at Rhein Main (sp) hospital in Germany.
Marty, Try Empyre Comics in Glen Burnie. I buy my bags, backing boards and storage boxes from them.
