The only QSL cards that I have that were not mailed to me were a few I got for christmas - it's almost impossible to find quality prints of old radio stations, but some QSL cards had decent photos - I've got a couple of really old school station cards framed on the wall for the station pics.
There is a book, I think called Hello World, that is a collection of photos of QSL cards from one amateurs collection - it's a nice book of history.
Personally, I hate to see QSL cards pitched without being sorted for the 'better' stuff - which in my eyes would be at least one from every country/state/county, plus any card that was of visual interest - either a unique design, a really terrific picture, a special contact, etc.
I don't have nearly that many cards yet, but I'm slowly working on it.

I can't see wanting to acquire other people's QSL cards, but I would never, ever part with mine....not with any of them.
