Hi,

My names Kevin, I live in the GTA Canada. I'm new to the forum (obviously) but not to cards.

I am a collector, and lately have been trying out some cardistry.

I have collected a couple of decks over the past few years. Mostly just when I see something cool or need cards. Over the past few years I have noticed a huge increase in premium cards, the art and tuck cases are phenomenal and I have been sucked in.

The majority of my collection comes from my Grandfather. When he passed away about 20 years ago, I received his playing card collection from the UK. For the most part they have been in storage, until NOW.

I have pulled them out and am currently going through them. Im trying to reduce the size of my collection, I hope to find out what is worth keeping and what I should donate.
My total collection is at 300 decks. No duplicates.

A lot of stuff to go through, but having fun doing it.

I'm sure I will post some pics and I'll have questions about brands and dating.

I look forward to being part of the forum.

Take care.
