I don't remember anyone ever mentioning this idea before...does it make sense?

Perhaps it is so obvious that only I would think it had never been thought about before.

your theory certainly sounds reasonable to me.

My one and only. These cards have really grown on me in recent years...wish I had them all!

Great cards everyone and great thread!
