As long as Leon is OK with it (and not mad at me for it) then I am going to write here. It will become much less frequent over time once I have my answers to my questions regarding cards from the 1800's.
I am a university graduate I KNOW how to do research and I am in no way lazy just much more fun to actually talk to people here (try going to university for 6 years with your nose in books and almost no conversation and see how you feel....talking here feels good I feel much less isolated and that is a nice feeling).
So for now please bare with me and understand I much rather have opinions from people here with a LOT of experience than read some article on the net.
