Also because it allows me to buy cards way cheaper than what they would cost in top condition :)Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681778110046124243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243926228844409495.post-35671631136483513262016-07-14T06:26:14.830-07:002016-07-14T06:26:14.830-07:00It's certainly an eye-catching, off the beaten...It's certainly an eye-catching, off the beaten path type shot and it really serves as a time capsule when it comes to ST facilities. That all makes for some added character to an already cool card.

I don't have my copy of Engel's book in front of me, but online it says there are only 91 cards in the set.<br /><br />I don't mind cards that have wear on them as it gives each one character and it shows that some boy was actually enjoying the cards.
