    A great and potentially hot button topic this week – as we get into the concept of ‘card custodianship'; specially for limited number or 1/1 cards, where do the rights of the card owner to do with the card whatever they wish, meet the concept of being just a custodian of that card in its journey through our hobby world. How do we protect it? Should we grade it? Should we get it signed? And what about sketch puzzles – should these siblings be separated? Some great thought starters and lots of subjectivity, with a dash of hobby etiquette sauce.
