MtG 100 Longest Serving Artists

Introduction

A list of the artists who have illustrated cards over the longest period (1st-last card). NOTE: Not 100% accurate; in particular, I don't have accurate release dates for spoiled but unreleased cards.

The information here is taken from the Scryfall bulk data feeds. I'll aim to update this page after each new set release; if I don't, give me a nudge! (contact details: I'm mrraow most places, including gmail)
