I can totally relate to this!

Sometimes a Vg card can be attractively embellished by its former owner. I showed the Diamond Stars Mellillo cards in my previous post, but thought it was worth spotlighting here, because it is just so cool.

Regular VG card on left, VG enhanced on right

I guess I collect in the VG area more than most others. That said, for me, it is always about how the card looks irrespective of the opinion on it.

From our BST a few years ago...

Those are all good looking cards being posted and even proof that sometimes "poor" is excellent. I only posted one vg card, so I thought I'd add two more of my well-traveled cards. Soft corners, darkening around the picture, but still present well for their age, imho.
