Way back in 1990, when I was still stupid and naïve, I sent my raw T206 Ty Cobb (bat on shoulder) to a company in California (not the one mentioned) that had advertised in SCD that they could 'restore' vintage cards.

I waited, waited, and waited.

Finally, I was fed up at the delay (several months) I called and said, 'Please just send the card back now'.

They did, and while nothing appeared to be changed (not trimmed, etc.) they did charge me $57 to get it back...which I later came to accept as a ransom payment.
