The issue is individually bagged and boarded (silver age size), placed with cardboard backer, and secured in a Gemini comic mailer. This is then wrapped in a water/tear proof mailing envelope. I use painters tape to better secure packaging.

About me:

I'm a private collector (not a store); issues are purchased and carefully handled. Upon purchase, I place the issue in a bag/board, typically have read once, and then store in a short/long box. Over time I've decided these should be enjoyed by other readers or collectors. I am not a professional grader, but I have many years' experience in comic grading. I am confident I've been pretty accurate and the grade is fair.
