I think the reason we are talking about sets is because this image isn't the greatest resolution whereas each individual one is. I'm not particularly impressed by the usage of the uncut cards in the balloon article, but I am very impressed by the whole set and how they are used throughout

Two sets of late 19th
Century collecting cards, depicting historical events in ballooning and parachuting history from 1783 to 1846. The cards show first flights, military accomplishments, triumphs and tragedies, such as the death of Tom Harris in 1824, who sacrificed his life when his balloon lost
441:
I'd support promoting all 20 images, but only tagging for the front page one or both of combined images (so I guess that would be 22 images promoted). These images are well scanned, historical illustrations. They not only illustrate ballooning, but they have art historical significance.
254:, what exactly is supporting as a set? Do we have a way to deal with that... feature picture sets? I would support as that if there is a way to deal with it... because I don't think having this many entries of the same type into FP is a good way of dealing with it.

and
Comment: there are only two images here, Tomtheman and Grenavitar. There are 20 cards, but there are two uncut sets of 10, and so only two pieces of paper and two images. Support because they illustrative, historical, and fun to look at.

By having the individual cards available, the event they portray can be illustrated without 9 other distracting images. As for the "lead" image, it should be the first card (chronologically).--
271:
224:- I agree, but the individual cards won't make the size requirements... are we ok to waive that since it's a set? If there's consensus in that direction, then I'll support.

The featured set template wasn't around when the
Mandelbrot set set (ha ha) was nominated. That's not to say it couldn't replace the generic template we have on it now.--

So who's gonna tag them all.. :-) ? I'm ok with it, but even featured sets need "lead pictures" that get the FP tag. ~
