New Collector Questions

Hi all,

I got my first actual book in from Cemetery Dance today - The Five by Robert McCammon. It is my first signed novel. I'm pretty excited, as dorky as that sounds. I have a few other actual Cemetery Press books on order but they are all pre-order. Anyway, my question - how do you all protect these books? Do you use Broadart covers? I use them on my collectible graphic novel HC's and I really like them. You may say - well duh, you use 'em and you like 'em so what's the problem? Well, I've been looking at folks collections in the threads (wow) and I don't see many, if any book covers and I wasn't sure why. Is there a drawback to using them? The other thing is that the covers I have are way too big (like DC Absolute and Marvel Omnibus editions) for typical HC novel's and I will need to order some. Anything I need to be aware of, any collecting or protecting tips will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ron
