While private collections prioritize privacy, public collections emphasize sharing.  When we went to post some of our own personal collection “PC,” we realized these pieces of history would no longer be confined to a safe, shelf, or wall; much like an automobile in a museum or a piece of art in a gallery.  While the modern hobby term PC describes cards that a collector specifically intends to keep for themselves, they’re really just pieces we’ve discovered, bought, traded-for and are unwilling to sell.  But because these items have sentimental value, we don’t feel as though they should be locked away, but rather, they should also be able to be appreciated from afar.
