It would be interesting to read the articles from that period in time. IMHO, encapsulating them for some reason or other just seems silly to me. Perhaps that makes me some kind of hypocrite because I see nothing wrong with cards being encapsulated. Please, by all means continue posting the full page woodcuts, those are just so cool.
Edited: Fred, I'm with you, but $$$ talk. I suggest you do what I do, while you still can: get the magazines, newspapers, guides, etc., that interest you - while they are cheap. Build a library and share it with others.
