Excellent choice Jonathan. Al is as honest as they come.

Best of luck with the collection!

He once walked six miles to return a penny to a customer that he had accidentally overcharged. Well, OK, that was actually Abe Lincoln but you get the idea. Al would have walked because he doesn't like to fly.

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement! We couldn't be happier with our decision to go with LOTG. I've never done anything like this before. Al and I had many conversations leading up to this and I never once felt pressured or intimidated.

Anthony's photography is great, I love seeing the "card orgy" and I feel for the guy knowing that he had to pull all those cards out of sleeves/holders to lay them out like that. There are nearly 1000 cards in the collection.

I can't wait for Al to reveal more about the collection, there are some exciting pieces in there.

Speaking of marketing, I really enjoy the way Al built the drama slowly revealing Anthony's photos on Facebook prior to the announcement. Also looking forward to the trailers that he has planned to show in selected IMAX 3D theaters! Just kidding, but that gives me an idea...

Congrats to Al...and great choice Jonathan. Good luck with everything!!

From a brief viewing I think the card I like the most is the T206 Johnson missing colors, though it's been sold already, according to the website.
