I enjoy owning even just a small piece of this historic collection.
Agree with Rob and Tim Completly.

I have 6 of the M116 Boston American players from Lionel and would love to put the Red Sox subset back intact even if it means selling off better graded cards. I also have a few Boston American Caramels, Ramly's and M101-4/5 cards from him.

IMO, Lionel Carter is what collecting is all about and a true pioneer. I know there are some that do not care but I like having cards that he owned in my collection.
