sometimes the lines between sports and non-sports...

is thinly drawn. Not that it's my place but I'd like to welcome this side to experience a little of the work done by dem "other" guys on the NS side. It looks to be an ongoing labor of love to compile as many artifacts and card sets as the members can put together. There are even some (gasp) baseball card images so's ya won't think it to be a total loss. The tireless efforts of our own Dan the Man and others are paying dividends IMO as we are assuredly making progress. If you can help with images for some of the missing cards/packs/albums/whatever - please consider scanning them and sending them to Dan. If not; come by and sit a spell whilst perusing pix of rare and less common "stuff" you might otherwise never see..... Not many personal issues on the other side - we're a bit laid-back......

Nice site but for the glaring omission.

I wouldn't say glaring omission if you meant the N2's as we posted the N36 set and many of us have the small set - we just haven't gotten to it yet. Perhaps you would be willing to share with us minus the flips if the set is complete? It would save scanning time for me (or someone else) anyway BTW - I really appreciate that you can enjoy moderate condition examples - especially as I remember a pic. of your "ride". All too often it's about the condition and not the more basal sense of the card. I'm happy to have a pleasant looking card. If it's the Monarch indians I haven't gotten to scanning my Kickapoo set yet. It's in a display that's rather hard to access. They're real, raw, and they're spectacular. Great likenesses and powerful colors - and despite their inexpensive manufacture - they are quite sophisticated. At first I thought you meant the omission was *tongue-in-cheek* "pre-war baseball cards" but that just didn't make sense as I'm no troll . I do agree there are many glaring omissions however as we just done got started. Dat's why I'm beating da bushes.....

Thank you for you nice comments. Unfortunately the only scans I have are in the holders. I'm 52/54 missing two of the errors.

I'm sure Dan would crop the flips out for your protection. That side is split about graded cards so I meant no slight in that regard. It would be great is you could send the images or perhaps allow Dan to capture them? If not I understand as we'll get to it at some point. I gotta let Dan come up for a breath every once in a while lest he grow weary - but if he stops getting fed I'm afraid he'll start playing around with that newer er/ah/um stuff......

and thanks very much - but when Dan captured the pix from your site they appeared too blurry to use. I'm confident we'll get them up there. Sold a couple of sets along the way but now trying again and 12 or so short from a raw ex/mint (+-) set. I know a couple of others have the complete set on the NS side but for whatever reason they haven't shared yet. Currently chasing the real photo sepia indians (HLC) and getting 1/2 every couple years seems to be the trend.
