Happy collecting to all!

Right. The key for me is overlooking minor flaws that almost all vintage cards have in some way and still being happy with something if the overall eye appeal isn't affected. I usually manage to do this, though I have random OCD that likes to rear it's head sometimes if I'm not paying attention. I try not to lose sight of the fact that there are some things that make vintage cards what they are, that are not necessarily applicable to modern cards.
