Awesome collection and most of them seem to be in pristine shape!!! I don't think they make too many cards these days with metal rivets.
Thanks, they are in pretty good shape, which is amazing considering how long some have been around.
So very true....I'm pretty sure I could find a whole lot more with digital chips in them these days than rivets. And I'm quite sure my 'rivets' will still be working in 2055, but can't say the same about the chips. (I saw a card the other day that talked, think it was $15 they wanted. Seemed a bit absurd to me. Then again, I have pliers almost 100 years old I still use, so...probably shouldn't spout too loud about such things.)
