Join us for a deep dive into the history and care of vintage comic books. This session explores the Golden Age (1938–1950s) and the Silver Age (1956–1970), detailing the key artists, publishers, and cultural shifts that defined these eras. Participants will also learn expert techniques for preserving these fragile treasures to protect comic book history for the future.
