This is the single most aesthetically pleasing group of cards I’ve ever seen. Just add a CJ Joe Jackson as honorable mention.

Craig, those team cabinets, photos, and postcards are out of this world!! Thanks for sharing!

Too bad the Big Train was not included.

George, I'm lovin' your spectacular group of Orange Borders cards. If you are looking for a Big Train card that would fit in nicely with your Orange Borders cards, I suggest WaJo's 1911 Baseball Bats card:

I agree...those borders are orange enough to earn a honorary degree at the Orange Border University, Citrus Annex. And after checking out the fantastic Old Cardboard gallery of the Baseball Bats set, it looks like there are orange border Baseball Bats versions of Cobb, Mathewson and Wagner as well, but I think they are pretty darn scarce.

Great orange edged cards Val and George...you guys are Orange Crushing it!
