When transporting games from the pre hinged back box era, do you prefer to completely remove the head or lay it down on the pin with wires attached? (Lay head on moving blanket and shrink wrap to secure.)

For me it's lay down the head and leave the wiring alone if possible. This has only been so since I finally got a roll of stretch wrap. As mentioned, there are all kinds of different situations you can find yourself in which can change the calculus. No right or wrong answer here.

10-4 on the ex, but what's your thoughts on the games LTG ? Were ops always removing bb's entirely to move games before the hinged bb? Were they folding and stretch wrapping? Did some visionary op call one of the companies and say "hey, we fold and move these anyway, why don't you idiots just put hinges on these things?
