First of all, great collection. Lot's of rare decks there! Second of all, did you cut up your uncuts to make them look like that on the bottom of your middle shelf? And finally, what happened to the spots for the Vortex deck?

@ Nathan

Thanks! The bottom row in the middle shelf is just ad card from the various decks that have been bent into shape a so they fit like that. Nothing too fancy. I was running out of space, so I needed to use it to display decks I currently have. I am planning on adding another frame or two fairly soon, so I should have plenty of room when my Vortex decks arrive.

@ Evan

Thanks! The displays were originally normal shadow frames ( picture frames with depth ) that had glass on the front. I removed the glass and added the individual shelves with trim that I bought from the hardware store, then painted everything black.

@ Jonathan

Unfortunately, yes.

nice collection man .. btw why did you not put the seasons together ?? btw what is the display on the table and bottom of the middle shelf


Thanks!

The Seasons decks are separated because the display fits 7 decks across and me being somewhat OCD, I didn't want to lose the symmetry that I have going on in that frame. The other display was originally for holding brochures and stuff, but it works perfectly to display cards, its made out of acrylic. The bottom row of the middle wall display is an area that I can store extra decks if I put them in horizontally and stack them, but for now I just have some ad cards tucked in there to display the backs, I think it looks kind of cool that way though.   
are you joking ?? they kind of look cool ??? THEY LOOK SUPER COOL!! it look like a uncut sheet roll up

First of all, awesome collection! Also let me welcome you to the forums. I hope you'll enjoy it here. Finally, it seems like some of those crown decks are 1st editions... nice! BTW do you speak french? How long have you been collecting?

@Kpop - I believe very few people in these forums have as much cards. I know Don, Alex, and TigerKnee do, and I own almost 400 without counting duplicates.

I haven't done a count in a while.  But I do know I have over 300 different decks, and another 130+ extras.

I'm probably sitting around 450.

I'll do a count/pics sometime this week.

Seb, Awesome collection!

I didn't know you were from Montreal!  It's a beautiful city!

Have you ever eaten at Mr.Steer downtown?  They have amazing burgers!

Anyway.. back on topic.

Great collection, I'll try to post some pics of mine by the weekend.

I do too! I'm actually originally french, from a french mom (2 french grandparents), and a french dad (born in France from a Spanish and an Italian, already french citizens). I love the crowns as well. What I really like about your collection is that there is some variety but there is also a lot of the good decks... You know what I mean. ;)

I actually do try to buy only the decks I might use; I wont buy any new thing (or old) just for the sake of having them... Some cards on the market are completely useless, let's face it, and I'm filling my cabinets with good quality cards only ;) I have made a few mistakes in the past, though :) But everything is quite relative and one man's ugly deck may be another's treasure ;)

Sometimes making mistakes may a fun "rupture" <--- that's french, and you know what I mean ;)
How come you don't own more Seasons deck since you like the way they handle so much?
And how come you don't own the Americana, Brimstone and Revision 1 decks? They handle very well and also look very nice!

The reason why I dont have more Seasons and why I didnt buy the latest cards is simply because Im trying to be reasonable and dont spend so much money in cards :)
