How to Restore and Preserve Your Vintage Board Games

Inspect each game for damage. Clean components with a damp cloth. Repair any tears or missing pieces.

Store games in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Use plastic bags for cards and small pieces.

Avoid storing games in attics or basements to prevent moisture damage. Consider using silica gel packets.

Use acid-free sleeves for cards. Keep instruction booklets in protective sleeves. Handle games with clean hands.

Consider framing vintage game boards as wall art. Display games in a dedicated shelf or cabinet.

Regularly check stored games for signs of pests. Rotate games to prevent prolonged pressure on components.
