You don't need a state of the art stoage facility to keep lobby cards and
posters in perfect condition. Take a few MINT lobbies right off the press...
sandwich them in between a couple thousand other lobby cards. Throw them in
a filing cabinet. Let them sit in a reasonable environment for 30, 40, 60,
80, 100 years. When you decide to pull them; they will be in virtually in
the same condition, so long as you keep your paper out of the light, and you
keep Fido from pissing on it. It can get humid in the summer, as long as its
dry in the winter. It's not rocket science. And yes, paper from the 20s and
30s shows up that is definately real and so clean you could throw it on a
slab and call it a 10. This is not the norm. But it happens from time to
time. I'm sure there is a good deal of cherry stuff out there that people
are sitting on, knowningly, or unknowingly.
