I'm just a regular college student with a slight addiction to collecting as many playing cards as I possibly can. I am particularly drawn to cards with beautiful artwork and designs. I got my start collecting playing cards when I began picking up decks at gift shops when traveling. Six years later, now I find myself heavily invested in collecting and the community. I study Political Science with a minor in Legal Studies and a certificate in Russian and Eastern European Studies. I love doing research, especially on topics that I'm passionate about, so that's how I came to creating and writing for this blog.

How do we know this?      In his book of accounts for 1392 or 1393, Charles ...
