In 1991, I made an appointment to see Burdick's collection. Back then you could view it album by album for hours.
The Met's guards hovered over you as you looked thru the albums in a "dungeon-like" room. Also, everytime you
requested another album, the guards acted as if it was quite a task.
Nonetheless, it was very fascinating looking at Burdick's cards, and it motivated me to complete my 1st T206 set.
Oh, in the album that contained Burdick's Goudey sets, the 1934 Nap Lajoie (#106) was loosely attached onto the
album's page that it caused it to flap around. Certainly, this was no way to treat such a neat card.
