That's 141 CJ's, almost entirely 1915's, spread out on my living room floor. Ive done this since I first started collecting and still find it enjoyable today. I do this occasionally and every card has its place for some reason or another other than number, I mean how could you separate chance from tinker or evers? Sometimes I get out my best cards and arrange them in a different grid, and there are others. My display(s) are built and will be built to easily remove the card from the back to accommodate this. Anyone else do anything goofy with their cards or I am I alone?

that's awesome steve!!!! I line up my cards on the floor or my bed sometimes...usually in order by type!

I especially like to line up all of my e94's in a large group to see when ordered by checklist all of the different colors together!!!

Thanks Peter and G...whose got neurosis? Thats funny...

Those raws are in penny sleaves in top loaders. The slabs wait to be opened until completion of the set/upgrades or within the JJ as he will be purchased at some later date.

I wouldn't advise swimming in your collection unless they all have rounded corners.

Hey, don't knock swimming in your cards - it once worked well for the legendary Don West!

If you don't want the entertainment of watching the whole thing, then go to about 2:15 into the clip, and enjoy!
