I personally prefer them flattened out without the matches. I feel this is the state that is most presentable and easiest to store.
I store them either in 6 pocket pages or 3x5 toploaders. Whole books in their original folded state with all matches and unstruck panel tend to sell for a premium. But I personally don't like to pay extra for an item that is harder to look at and enjoy. Quote:

I have some of each as well and like them flat too. Plus I always wonder ... if I bump the matchbooks with matches still in them, is it possible it will start a fire? The matches are sooo old you would think not but who knows? I can just imaging a collector losing their entire collection (or house!) because their minty matchbooks set the place on fire... jeff Last edited by jefferyepayne; 04-03-2015 at 09:01 AM. |

Thanks guys - interesting paradox and Jeff I thought the same thing about the matches - I'd have reservations collecting anything with actual matches.
