New to Collecting

Unread post by Eldorado »

Hello Everyone!

I've always loved playing cards since I was a kid and recently I wanted to try and create my own deck for the fun of it. I went down the rabbit hole of admiring old card back designs from Goodall and Dougherty and now I find myself wanting to collect old decks. haha. Glad to join the forum and I hope to poke at your brains for some tribal knowledge on card collecting. haha :)

Welcome. Unless you have limitless funds, my advice would be to be really fussy for your first year ie you must really LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a deck to buy it in your first year. There are not many decks that I regret buying but I would probably only buy about 20% of them if they were put before me now
