Mucho thanks, homies. As a collector, one of the most elusive terms is "museum piece," and this is a collector's dream in that regard.

Duane, I really appreciate that you like seeing all those low grade babies. Looking at everyone's cards here is great fun and always a welcome reprieve from the daily grind. And CW-- yours has been one of my favorite collections to look through!

Jason, the museum is part of the Louisville Slugger Factory and the address is 800 West Main Street.

Man, that's a cool set up!

It's also cool to think so many random people will be appreciating your card, Matt. Who knows, maybe it will turn a few people back on to collecting cards in some way.

Hard to argue with that. I'm sure we'd all love to own a card nice enough to be the centerpiece of a museum exhibit. It's a beautiful card. Congrats!

Is that two museums it's been in now?
