Back about 8-9 years ago I had this discussion with John Spencer. I was buying his E102 Cobby and I asked him "should I collect more mid grade or fewer nmt type cards?" I chose more cards. As you said Bruce, it's the image we are looking for. Borders were made so the image wouldn't be disrupted with wear to them. I collect cards that have a good aesthetic quality. The borders, as long as they aren't trimmed, are not that important to me. Don't get me wrong, I still like high grade cards, I just can't justify them with my collecting resources..BTW, lmk of all of those truly nmt Just So's and Four Base Hits you have ever seen.....best regards
