Wow! I was just about to post that I like the beige/cream colored set much better than the red. They're both so very pitiful, now that the foil pics emerge :cry:

Congrats! I actually love my beige set :)

Could not be happier with this one, the jpeg gives it no justice. Acquired through a trade with the artist http://www.matt-verges.com/ who is a member here, scumbugg. The colors really pop on this one, will be properly framed and displayed in a week or two.

Thanks all, it really was a battle royal here to get these so I'm especially happy I WON that battle!

Man I'll tell ya I think these ARE the best use I have ever seen for sure.

Here's better pics, I stuck some photo corners on a foam board and put 'em on a easel to stand them up & STILL they don't come close to showing the foil flash.
But....These are the best I've seen of these yet and I'll try fooling with the setting on the camera, and mess w/ the light to try for a better set still.

No need to take better pics, 'cat. These are awesome! Thanks for sharing.
By the way, I'd forget about snagging a red set. You hit the motherload with the foils, and you have the 2nd best set in the beige. Of course, if you're a completist, go for it!

For those who were interested, I opened a thread regarding poly sleeves and acid free backings, titled "Poly sleeves..."
A few pics are included. You'll see there that poly is as clear as glass to see through.
