MUST see! Just TOO cool! Wow...
Posted By: Jim/jverri01
I would LOVE to hear what y'all think about this posting. It is described as faded, but - hmmm. Although it does appear washed out - it also has a certain amount of detail retained in the facial image. If colors fade, do they not fade consistently? I am not familiar with the CJ production process, I only observe the similarity between this card and many of the T206 proofs and ink/dye error cards I have seen. It is interesting to look at if nothing else! What do you folks think? Is this just faded? It does look warped, as though it has been soaked - but, wouldn't that have affected ALL colors? Please look, please remark. THANKS. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1809249053 |

The pressman obviously presented the originally requested "bleached" version of Baker, which was rejected as looking too "ghostly" (even for baker). The customer admitted that his original request that all cards be bleached after printing was not a good idea, and this resulted in the nice CJ's we all love so much. |

The object of bleaching is to get rid of stains, not color. I think it fell in a bathtub, or a rain gutter, which nobody remembered to empty or clean out for about a month. This card is the result of a bad accident, not intentional messing around. |

Check the Goudey pics in Wayne Varner's Shoebox catalog, advertised as bleached. |

I have seen other cards that exhibit a similiar appearance. This Cracker Jack has been exposed to either moisture or a large amount of humidity over an extended period of time. |

The reason Julie and I know is because we are both (secretly) floating cardboard connoisseurs. |
