Default Why is T206 Museum quoted as the authority on T206 by major auction houses?

One of many examples of BS from T206museum.com:

http://www.t206museum.com/page/periodical_81.html

"One of the great finds in the hobby almost walked unnoticed out the door of Orve Johansson's Largo, Fla., baseball card shop late last year. But because of the shop owner's concern for his customers, Johansson's now the owner of a rare, unopened package of 1910 Piedmont cigarettes. The pack's cellophane wrap still is intact, and the package contents remain hidden from the world."

The pack is 1930's. Cellophane wrap gives it away. I rather trust Alan Hagar than t206museum.com for info.
