Whatever happened to...old ebay auction (wall display)
 
Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>A couple months ago there was an auction for a framed display with T206's and even some T210's or something else glued to a display. I believe there was some newspaper behind some of the cards. There was a green Cobb portrait along with some other HOF'ers and a few southern leaguers...anybody remember what I'm talking about? I was thinking Brian W had won it...but not sure...? I'm just curious if the cards ever came off...<br />

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Of course they didn't come off... That would require soaking them. And that would be a sinful, horrible, evil, deceitful thing to do. So I'm sure that the cards didn't get dampened, soak of just fine, making them collectible and enjoyable again.

Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>Ahh...but one never knows. According to the seller at that time a couple card had already fallen off on thier own. Anyway..even if the cards were stuck...a good swift kick to the back of the display board may drop a couple...and that wouldn't be altering would it? ha ha

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Guys,<br /> The display is still 99% intact, as 3 cards have fallen off. All were Piedmont 150/350 backs, so I'm assuming that most of the cards are Piedmont and Old Mill. I don't plan on "soaking" them off anytime soon, as it would take quite a bit of time and energy to complete the project. I might give it a shot sometime next winter when I have time, but right now, it's on the wall..... Be well Brian

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Dave,<br /> Thanks for the advice, but the "kicking the crap" out of the back won't work on this piece. It's mounted on very heavy Card/Partical board along with a newspaper insert, so it will take a bit of time and patience to remove the cards without damage. And during March Madness I don't have enough time or cold beer to get it done.....Be well Brian
