Title: How do you store your magazines ???
Post by: Straight Time on March 21, 2013, 14:27:16 pm


I have an increasing collection of magazines all about the house   ;)

How do you guys store or file yours.

I find the card magazine storage systems to be flimsy at the least, and my mags are becoming an increasing problem........ sound familiar ???

Help !!!

Look forward to your solutions

Regards

I'm whittling my collection down to just the Hot VW's, they're all in binders. Storage is easy, and makes searching a particular topic very easy. It may seem expensive at first, but it's worth it in the end.

I have mine stored on shelves in my garage although I am running out of room.  I put each magazine in a plastic page protector and a years worth of them in magazine file boxes.  

The first photo is of the Hot VWs magazines and the second is of the VW Trends magazines.

The binders i would love but would be expensive. I have all issues of VolksWorld and Ultra.

My wife needs them tidying up.........  Oooops   :-\

I put all of my VW mags in plastic page protectors and then in to a separate binder that's labeled for each year.  I have these in a steel cabinet in my garage.  My cabinet is full now and I need another one.......

Complete sets of HVW's, Trends, Greats, and a bunch of issues from years of collecting, all racked on shelves out in the barn. No fancy binders or plastic condoms. Just all in one place on a shelf.
