| So I'm working on a new Limelight. It'll be front/back of everything I have. As I'm putting this all together I'm struck with a bunch of seemingly unanswerable questions.
Do I group by release (SW, ESB, ROTJ, POTF) ? Do I group by Country instead? Do I do Bootlegs all as a single heading or put them in country? What about Shelf Talkers, Proofs , etc.. ? Do I put loose together and then carded?
I'm thinking of this:
KENNER
- SW - ESB - ROTJ - POTF
Non US License
- Country - Country
Bootlegs
- Country - Country
Miscellaneous
- Items
Anybody have thoughts on this ? Am I over-thinking it? |

| I say do it however you think it'll look good. As long as its alphabetical, chronological, color coded and has a Mr. Spock figure in it. |

| Yeah that's a tough one for sure, especially with the uniqueness of your collection. I would probably do by movie releases & then bootlegs seperate. Regardless of what direction you chose, I'm sure the results will still be awesome. Looking forward to seeing it & good luck! |

| John, it's not much wonder you are having trouble putting them in some sort of category. Those are some fantastic pieces. The way you have it now works great. |

| Thanks for the feedback (and compliments) everyone.
I guess if everyone likes it I should run with it. I'm debating one more possibility though. I may do licensed by movie with sub categories for country.
I know I'll like whatever the end result is, but I overthink things LOL |

| Maybe you should do an anti-format and just put them all together in random spots? |

| Hi John, that works for me....!!! ...Just a little mistake; your Rebel Commander is in the wrong section... It's a dutch CLIPPER card, not a German PARKER one. JC |
