Card Room

I thought I’d post some images from my “office” which was featured on the Topps Instagram page yesterday.
There is an incredible story behind the imagination, construction, and installation of the room that words can’t do justice for. Just know it was the vision of fellow forum member - Brent M - who quite literally had to invent and engineer the display systems you see here, for this to become reality over the course of two phases and two years. I am just the beneficiary of it. I always say it’s the best “investment” in cards I’ve ever made, but being able to see it all has brought collecting to the new level.
Here are just a few pics

Wow….amazing custom cabinets to beautifully showcase the glory of your collection. Fantastic assortment of racks, packs and boxes. I am also loving the GPK and Star Wars items. I think we are collecting brothers from different mothers!
Outstanding! I would pay an admission just to visit this room.
Very cool. As a kid I dreamed of having a card room and even my dreams didn’t look that good!
Nice!

Thunderous applause. Incredible, well done.
Enjoy the go.

SWEET!
My goodness. If I had that room I'd never let anyone in and I'd never leave.
That room would make Willy Wonka proud!
I saw the Topps IG post and thought that some of it looked familiar, OP had previously shown us some of the progress here

Fantastic! When are you opening up your card shop?😀
Awesome. Have any vintage unopened pack stories from either finds or opening any personally?
Nicer than the Celestial Kingdom.
Rebirth. Renewal. Transformation.
I love to see people who are this passionate and dedicated to unopened vintage. Incredible collection!
That is just insane. Congrats to having a room where I could live the rest of my life!
I am truly embarrassed to show my card room.

I love it. Such a great way to display a collection!
But....what happens when you acquire a new card? Where do you put it?
With that collection why would you need to buy anything else? He already has everything anyone would ever want.

WOW!!! Thanks for sharing. Not into unopened at all, but would pay admission to view in person.
If you could choose just 1 pack from your collection to open which would you choose? But would instantly be replaced by a magic fairy of course. What would it be?
Tough one. I hate the thought of opening any of them, but if I had to, it would be interesting to open one of the 1971 series 4 racks with a great shot at a Nolan or Hank.
