I love the thrill of finding something you didn't know you had, but always wanted. Even better is finding out you have two because of this.

Now as a chapter of history is closed about Portal Second Age Demo Boosters, one thing remains, what's inside, Tip Card or Filler or else, and I'm not very keen to open one in regards of the time I spent finding it :)

Well, I don't post here often. Seems like the stuff people want to see needs to be worth thousands of dollars, and even then some people seem to be jaded. In any case I'm going to post this because I think it is really cool and because i want to thank those that made it happen for me:

The original post/observation is at: http://www.magiclibrarities.net/forum/v ... ht=warthog

So thanks to berkumps for starting the ball rolling.
then he kept it rolling by sending me the 8 that he had.

Next enters Knutsen who finds and sends me the last card to complete the page.

This will become a "page of interest" on my collection web site.

The next one is the Skulking ghost.

I hope you enjoy these priceless pages....

A second of my kind of mail brag;

When i first opened Mirage while in Korea I discovered the two versions of the ghost. Having no other languages to note and not really having an alternate art collection they got set aside with other items of interest.

berkumps awakened that find with a post:

http://www.magiclibrarities.net/forum/v ... king+ghost

And again Knutsen was kind enough to find one for me and complete the set:

Real cool Gary, could it be a Made in Belgium VS Made in The US story, for the 2 Versions of Skulking Ghost English? It will be interesting to find out, by opening the 2 different boosters, and getting a Skulking Ghost inside of them :wink:

If I remember correctly, one of the ghosts came from a booster I bought at a Korean game store and the other came from a booster that came directly from the States.

Yes, the two different English Skulking Ghosts are from either made in Belgium or made in US Mirage packs/decks. I've opened both types of decks myself, and pulled each from their respective packs. The differences on the foreign ghosts would then indicate which country they were printed in.
