I do think we put far too much importance on this. I have some posters from the 20's and 30's that, (before I got them) have just been lying around,or stuffed in drawers, with no concern for preservation; And these are in pretty good shape after going through the blitz, and such like.

Now we Poster collectors want to keep them in as good a condition as when we got them....! Fair enough, but lets just be sensible. I keep my posters in a room with the curtains shut, unless I'm in there. The central heating is never on in that room, and the door keep shut. So even in the summer, it doesn't get too hot in there.... And that's about it. Why would you want to do anymore...

None of the above... just a plan chest, several mylar sleeves and a good bit of British air!

My poster lair in a spare bedroom of my house; with central AC? Does that mean climate controlled? I was think about hooking up my rarely used dehumidifier...

Yes, central AC would mean you have it cooled during the summer, thus the climate is being controlled so that the room does not get warm/hot.

I`ll take a guess that the 1% who stores posters in a variety of places is R**h...his warehouses are vast and many...or A*i, where the top of the cupboard suites just fine...

I store them in the basement. Me and the kids have an agreement if they don't mess with my posters they can have the rest of the basement. But upon further inspection it would be in my best interest to move my flat file out from under my water shut off.

I wouldn't keep in basements; don't they flood first?

I just haven't been able to give into my pride and for the most part my wife...

She was the one who insisted that I not buy them (based on the situation) and that I would be a "two-faced sucker" if I went back and asked for them again.
