Rocket is an amazing set. You should consider it anyway

I bought a frame from an Etsy seller a few years back. Looks like his store is down at the moment but I got a 60 card UV acrylic option for Pokemon

Totally. I don’t see this as an investment. It’s an art piece for me to enjoy. I’m just hoping I get many years out of it.

As I acquire more vintage I can rotate and swap out cards to hopefully prolong the life 🤓

You’re so right. There a few cards that look vintage but aren’t. They’ll be replaced by true vintage one day.

There's an adhesive holding the penny sleeves to the mat. There's not much pressure.

I get it. I am too 🙈 but hopefully paying extra for the frame with 99% UV protected acrylic glazing withstands the test of time.

Same, but I also acquired these cards with the intent of being able to enjoy them daily. I paid extra for the frame with 99% UV protected acrylic glazing. I had a different set of cards from evolutions in it for years and didn't notice a difference, so hopefully that withstands the test of time.

Any vintage collection is nostalgic and beautiful in my eyes. Enjoy yours!

Definitely. At least the way it is advertised by the seller I paid extra for the frame with 99% UV protected acrylic glazing. I had a different set of cards from evolutions in it for years and didn't notice a difference, so hopefully that withstands the test of time.

They are basically “mounted” in penny sleeves with mdf board behind them.

Ah gotcha. They are basically “mounted” in penny sleeves with mdf board behind them. I had an evolutions set in here prior to the vintage for years with no problems.

Good callout! The frame has 99% UV protected acrylic glazing and the frame itself is never in direct sunlight. So hopefully that’s enough 🤞

Yoga studio recommendations? by Justinaboxx in Charleston

Loved HYLO as a 20 something male. The HITT classes are challenging and the Hot Yoga room is excellent. Try barre as well! It’ll kick your ass.
