I would be interested in a structured way to learn more about the hobby. Sections on printing processes of the late 1800's and how they were used for cards, printing processes and evolution before WW1. Extend to between the war printing and current card printing processes.

This could segue into a section on determining fakes and forgeries. The use of a black light, the use of a microscope.

Obviously I am just scratching the surface. This board is a great source of information but the information is aleatoric in nature. Having a guide (course/teacher) would be worth it.

I spent a year putting together a course on iTunes U using iBook author. It takes a lot of time to put together text, photos, sound bites and videos into a coherent whole. By the end of the year I felt like I was somewhat competent in the whole e-pub world. Redoing the book, lab manual, problem sets, ancillary material for a Kindle was a real pain.

Good luck with your adventure.
