Dmitry Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 I don't like opening the Mosaic boxes, especially the old designs, because they get damaged so easily, so I store the Lps outside the boxes. I have been able to buy some Mosaic-sized boxes and I put the Lps and the books in them. Will post photos if you want. Quote
John Tapscott Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 What?? You mean, you don't store them in a deep freeze in a temperature and air pressure controlled room, to be checked and handled only once a year with sterile masks and gloves? And of course, there are never to be taken anywhere near a turntable!!! Just kidding, but it's funny how we give our Mosaics much better treatment than our other recordings, even our other box sets. Something about those Mosaics! Quote
brownie Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 I would not think of storing the vinyls away from the original boxes! I try to be as careful as possible when removing the LPs. Some of the boxes covers show very slight damage but that's the way I received them! Quote
sidewinder Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 I would not think of storing the vinyls away from the original boxes! I try to be as careful as possible when removing the LPs. Some of the boxes covers show very slight damage but that's the way I received them! I do the same. Boxes stored vertically (slightly away from wall to give air circulation) and with LPs, booklets, invoices etc. kept within the boxes. I'm super-careful when opening up the boxes but not quite at the white glove stage yet. When 'cracking open' a set I try to give the LPs one treatment on the VPI, if they haven't already been cleaned. Even new sets benefit from this. Quote
kh1958 Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 (edited) I never even noticed that Mosaic boxes were easily damaged. I keep all the CDs/LPs and booklets in the original Mosaic boxes, stored vertically on a book shelf. Edited October 31, 2006 by kh1958 Quote
