My move to the new computer is going to force me to update several pages on the site which didn’t import correctly (currently they should all be fine though) so I’ll be hard at work the next few months on that. The effected pages are all of those that I’ve used FrontPage Gallery and Slide Show features — all of the collectible slide show pages for instance.
While prepping the list of pages I’d need to fix, Garry from Australia wrote with some additions to the 1916 MJ Moriarty Playing Card page. The first thing I did was check his additions against my page, and man, was the page a mess. So, since this was one of the pages I was going to need to fix anyway, I spent the past couple of nights cleaning up the page.
Garry was kind enough to send images of the 3 cards he had which weren’t on the list, so now our 53 card deck presents us with the possibility of 113 different cards. Garry’s additions were Crane Wilbur on the Jack of Hearts and Richard C. Travers on the 9 of Spades, as well as a second informational card included in his deck. Both the Wilbur and Travers’ cards use the same images as the differently numbered/suited cards featuring them in the deck. Images of all 3 cards have been added to the page.
So please enjoy the updated 1916 MJ Moriarty Playing Cards Photo ID Guide.
