Those first two sets on my list are major rabbit holes and proving to be very challenging. Plus I'd like to get all my "Bison" set all slabbed...
I just ordered two Littleton albums with sleeves for slabs to hold two other personalized sets I'm building- coins with Bison and Indigenous...
Don, I'm in virtually the same situation... just returning to the hobby after doing other things since the late 80s, only to find a brand new...

Hello everyone, I have a couple of Dansco albums that are starting to fill up and getting a pretty tight in the slipcase but the next one up has...
