The sportsantique site has, bar none, the best reviews of the National (three years running now) in publishing or the Internet. The site's owner uploads literally dozens of photos and provides a rich, detailed text of each item and his general experiences/impressions while there.
Excellenet stuff, and highly-appreciated.
Clinton: I don't think this forum can ever be as active as the VBC forum (we just have significantly fewer numbers of collectors), but I agree it should be more active than it currently is. I think we all need to take more initiative in both starting and responding to threads (I know I'm going to try to). I would tell people (and especially lurkers), don't be shy about posting. Sometimes just a couple responses can lead to a great discussion.
