3) The cards have amazing original artwork by respected artists .

4) The set has symmetry in that the set has a consistent and uniform design .

5) It has rare parallels in the form of the full prints .

I can’t think of another set that is comparable. Long term I think those who have overlooked it will be kicking themselves . I challenge anyone to find me a comparable . It simply doesn’t exist .
Absolutely!

This set literally got me back into collecting when a friend shared the Sandberg card with me in 2018. I immediately began ordering weekly, and haven't stopped since. The addition of the prints and artist signed cards offered by Jared and Wheeler have also been fantastic inclusions. There truly is no other set like it.
