| Is it better to store a Speed Graphic with the shutter open or closed? |

A general rule is to store cameras with all spring tension released.
Many of us leave the focal plane shutter at the "O" or open position for convenience even though (in the Pacemaker) this does have a little spring tension left on the shutter spring.
What is best on the Anniversary and pre-Anniversary Speed Graphics I will leave to those who have experience with those models.
