Was just flipping through the latest SMR with this article about the Mastronet/PSA collaboration on this new book...I think called "Cardboard Gems" though they really didn't mention the name very much. They kept just calling it "this book" in the article. It supposed covers cards from the dawn through the 60s.
Anyone seen it, read it, have any thoughts and opinions? These things tend to be really nice or crap...I wondering which we have here....or maybe it isn't out yet?

    "Cardboard Gems" it is and they were made available at the PSA luncheon. I think it's pretty neat - it's got a lot of good photography and the production is high quality. Nearly every page has pics of classic cards, front and back, unless the card was blank backed.

    IF ANYONE KNOWS THE ANSWER TO THE ABOVE QUESTION, I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR IT. My membership is about to expire and I don't wish to purchase the book if I am to get it anyways with the new membership.
    Thanks for the info MorrellMan....sounds like my new bathroom book to me. Any other opinions anyone? Oh, and how fat is the book?

    I am assuming it is based on this post, but no timing.
