There is a major difference between today's collector and the legends of the past.

Guys like Frank Nagy and Lionel Carter were average working men who had an incredible passion for collecting cards.

Today's major collector, on the other hand, has to be very wealthy. It would be extremely difficult to amass a major collection today without having a lot of expendable cash. They are still a passionate group, but today it takes money to build a great collection.
