    Hello, fellow bald man who also recently opened a Masques box checking in 🫡
    Masques is one of my favorite sets. Started playing right around the time it came out. It’s such a huge deep epic set and the art is peak mtg. And obviously contains real old bordered foils. Set is criminally disrespected

    If you pull a foil dark ritual from masques check the back. There was a misprint with the back of the cards upside down. They were selling way up in the hundreds last time I looked. I had them back in the day but just said cool the back of the cards are upside down. Back in those days we just thought the misprints were unplayable junk cards.

So majority of my friends and mtg fans just said see you later and started playing this new game called everquest and that stupid yugi oh card game lol. I remember My local LGS was fire selling these for $50 per box and nobody wanted them lmao. fast forward 24 years later this set 60x’ed in value. Damnit why didn’t I buy this when it was $50 per box.
