 Thanks, Curt! I think the eye-opening part for me has been the amount of knowledge I have gained since I started.  I am not talking art-wise, I'm talking about cards.  I called myself a 25+ year collector. I started doing these pieces, made my way to this site, and realized just how little I knew.  I'm still learning about sets I never knew existed that are popular with advanced collectors.  Talking with these collectors and learning about these sets has been a real treat.
