Default ACC designations

Posted By: jay behrens

Burdick never made a distinction as to what was a card and what was not. Basically, for him, anything on a paper product was considered a card. He catalogued pins, postcards, newspaper premiums, etc. so there is no issue there. As for giving Lections an ACC designation, that's a no issue too. People will continue to call them as such and the ACC # will just be a trivia question, just like most people can't tell you what the ACC# for Goudeys and PLay Balls are.

Burdicks catagories are pretty cut and dried as to what goes where. For UNCs that have an unknown origin, I would think that defaulting them into one of the main catagories T, E, etc. Would be the thing to do.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
