A nice start to a varied group such as these. There seems to be a pretty descent variety of species out there to collect for those with a fondness for them. Most are very inexpensive price-wise so they are a good starter group for collectors with limited funds. Also, there are a good many which are sold with their wings already spread and legs tucked in so all you need to do is push a pin through them.
Generally speaking, they are easy to work with in terms of spreading (no scales to worry about). I like em' and have a couple of drawers dedicated to them.
Of note, you should consider getting some printed labels for your specimens and then trim them down to a smaller aesthetically pleasing size. Also, make sure they are printed on better quality stiffer paper.
