The art love was what attracted me to pursue it, the first prewar set I pursued, a few decades ago. And eventually I couldn't resist dabbling in the Sky Birds, its artistic cousin, even though I am almost strictly a Baseball collecting hound.

And this topic provoked me to post a bunch of non-HOF examples, just to show how artistically grand a set this is overall.
