I have been picking them up here and there ever since, as well as other signed pre-war stuff. I think DS are perfect for autographs and given they have similar color schemes, look great displayed together. They seem to come up for sale here and there. I was very happy to score the Terry on eBay, and another board member ended up with the Waner from the same seller. I'll email you some pics (some day I'll take time to upload my cards to site)

Doing well, Ian. I e-mailed ya back after downloading some pictures 
Luke, those Caramels just jump off the screen. They're truly beautiful.
Erick-congrats on some great additions. I'm going to be the last pre-war collector on Net 54 to own that Gehrig at the rate I'm going.
Dan-I don't know if PSA is any harder on staining. But that Lajoie is incredible no matter what the grade.
CrazyDiamond-that's one of the nicest PSA 1s I've ever seen. Great eye appeal!
