Their size is a turn-off to some, from what I’ve seen.

There are also those whose definition of a “card”’ does not include these blankets. So, that segment of the community won’t collect them.

Additionally, the images aren’t for everyone.

While I personally think they’re really cool, I’ve often gotten the feeling that I’m in the minority.

I think they're very cool too, at least when found in good shape with decent borders. However, I must admit that it was a real downer to have so many of the teams unrepresented.

I have always steered clear of the B18 blankets with yellow staining.

I wish the auction house had better pictures instead of that scanning magnifier stuff.

I save pics of things like this that I can't afford, and the scanning thing makes it nearly impossible.
