I am very disappointed there isn't a 1986 Topps Update XRC. Or part of the 1986 Donruss Rookies set. I also don't like the 1986 Sportsflix. I have the card but choose not to include it because I find them hard to focus. Later Sportsflix sets overcame that obstacle. I like 1997 Screen Plays with display tin.

todeen - love the Barry and Donnie rack.
Thanks! it's one of my newest additions, from a Net54 member!

Yes, there are quite a few threads on Net54 that inspired me. There are a few Twitter accounts that do something similar.
