Beware buying CELLO packs in stores.  (First of all look for a tear to
see if they have been visually checked.)  Secondly, I have heard that
people have discovered a way of checking the packs without even opening
them.  Apparently the special cards are cut differently. This allows people
to check them by running the hands over the outside of the pack.
(someone was demonstrating this technique in a card shop as I arrived,
but I missed the specifics, but it seemed to work.)  As further evidence
of its working, I bought the top row of packs from a box in a grocery
store, where the box only had about 4 packs missing, and did not get a
single special card. :(  I am wondering if people who can guarantee 2
cards for 10 packs know about this technique and would be willing to
share it with the rest of us.  (Apparently, it also lets you
distinguish between sensations and larry johnsons)

Anybody have any extra cards from various food issues?  I'm looking for 
cards from any sport put out by companies such as Coca Cola, Jimmy Dean, 
McDonalds, Denny's, Kelloggs, General Mills, etc.

If you have cards from any of these companies (or others) and you are 
willing to do some trading, drop me a line.  I would prefer to trade, and 
have cards from 1991 UD (baseball and basketball), 1992 UD, 1991 Fleer, 1992 
Fleer, 1992 OPC and others.  Send me a list of the cards you have to trade, 
as well as your wantlists and hopefully we can work out a deal.

Thanks,

I was told by my local card shop that UD would not be producing a 1992 factory
football set.  So if you want a set you either have to hand collate a set
yourself or buy a set done by someone else.  This information came from
about the first day that the 1992 UD football cards were available, so I
guess that UD  could change their mind if they wanted to.  Actually, I 
don't know for sure that UD ever said that; I was just told that.  So take
it for what it's worth.

For decades I have been lusting for a certain coin. Recently I was
able to get it. It's a 1907 Roman Numeral $20 high relief, wide
band, St Gaudens (gold). If you're a coin collector you know what I
mean by seeking a certain coin. My reason for getting this is its
interesting history and the fact that I'm very interested in coin
design and how it relates both to art history and to the history
(and politics) of a country.

What about you? Do you have a certain coin that you have a special
regard for? What is it (and why)?

At that time, you can vote in favour of the rec.collecting.cards

Bob,

I had reposted your previous message where you described the RFD
process and that you would be collecting votes once the RFD is 
over. What I did was make the subject heading read 

	"RFD:rec.collecting.*****"

that way people with "CARD" in their kill file was able to see it. 
Another options is to title your post 
	
	"RFD for everyone who reads rec.collecting"

With both of these, people have to read them to see what it
contains. Once they read and see that the post is for the creation
of rec.collecting.card group, I think you'll get lots of responses.
I didn't modify this subject heading of this message because it sounds 
like you didn't see the followup I sent to your original message. 

Good Luck with the RFD.
Nancy
