Hi all. New to this forum. I've recently come into possession of a Original D&D White Box set and I'm wondering how I should store both the box and the booklets. I've thought about going to a craft shop and purchase/make a shadow box with UV protecting glass. Curious how others safely store their vintage D&D box sets. Thanks!

I have all my OD&D sets in poly bags and then stored in a closet...

Likewise. Carefully stored not on display - I keep meaning to organise something but haven't got round to it. For nice box sets I do take the books and papers out and store them carfeully upright, sometimes in bags. That way (I think!) they do not bend and sag against the box, over time, when it is stored upright. But I rally don't know if that is necessary. Perhaps I am being too careful. :D
