The Eisner Award for Best Archival Collection/Project–Strips is an award for "creative achievement" in American comic books. It has been given out every year since 2006. From 1993 to 2005 an award called Best Archival Collection/Project was awarded between, at which point it was split into two awards, one for comic strips and the other for comic books. To be eligible, the original comics must be at least 20-years old.

Name change

The award was launched as Best Archival Collection/Project–Comic Strips in 2006, but was later shortened to Best Archival Collection/Project–Strips.
