DaveI'm a newbie to collecting, but got a scanner that has good resolution (HP for $99 at Best Buy). I've just finished scanning all of these, I use the scans much more than the cards themselves. I wrote these to a CD so that they are portable, as well.
I started out 1 card at a time, progressed to 5 then 4 (one sheet), then to 9 at a time. I found that I have left-right problems because the scanner looks up while I look down. To fix this, I arrange the cards from top to bottom, left to right, but instead of 3 x 3, I make columns of 3,3,2,1. Then I get the sequence right. The fronts are easy, but the backs are where I had dislexia. I've found that a sheet of paper makes the best spatula, and is easier than broad tip tweezers.
