I have been reading all of the Carter letters here on the board. I watched the Mastro video and I love the picture of the newspaper article where he is showing off the Delongs around 1950. Something about that set really spoke to me. Maybe someday it will show up again. I will be more on the ball when that happens...

Boy, 6 years ago a partial set went off the board at $14K! That is quite the price drop.

Was the 2009 set superior to the current offering?
