... where I keep the good stuff (slabs, artwork). It is indeed locked and equipped with an alarm.

That's a cool set up. Are those metal frames?

I was referring to the shelving. Zooming in it looks like wood though.

Just wood, circa 1930s. Fit CGC boxes relatively OK, but it sorting them is like playing Jenga.

Love the setup. I like seeing people's comic rooms/storage. It's fun as hell.

Thanks, guys! I just finished organizing. All slabs have mylar bags and are now in labeled boxes. My Valiant books are now fully updated in the CGC sets. The closet is shared with family photographs (you know, those things people used to print out), my electric/acoustic guitar, and my old painted toy soldiers. Pretty soon, I think it will be all slabs. Also, in the corner are my raw gems (Avengers 1, Hulk 181, etc.).

I'm finally organizing my raw collection as well, and will be selling duplicates. All will have uniform bag/boards and have proper labels. I can actually see what I'm missing as well!

Excellent. Thank you for showing me the location of your stash. Now then, what type of alarm are you using, and what would be the most effective means of defeating said alarm... Just curious. ;0)

My thoughts exactly! I think I could get inside with a H.A.R.D.Corps unit to assist me. Greg's psiot dampeners kept my team out of his vault, but I don't see any pictured here. :hm: :lol:

Very nice, Steve. :clap: Sure beats my CGC box sitting on my office floor. facepalm
