Scrap Book soaking disaster
Well, I took a gamble on this scrap book in Goodwin's* last auction:
Goowin1.jpg Goowin2.jpg Big risk  -------> big reward  FkC1.jpg FkC2.jpg FkCom1.jpg FkCom2.jpg These bad boys were glued with some sort of heavy white rubber cement. Yes, Dick T. gave it a shot, with no success. Then I tried a 24 hour water soak, even bring up to boiling point. Nothing. Tried to Boil in oil two cards, ended up with two chicken-fried cards. Even an over night soak of one card in Bestine did nothing. So, sucked it up and peeled away. The Am. Beauty's kill me (especially 460 Chase/trophy). At least T205 Matty wasn't a Cycle, or you would have to contact me at the Vroom wing of Trenton Psychiatric Hospital. * I hold no grudge with Goodwin, they didn't know. If the consignor knew, who knows. Can't imagine why anyone would permanently adhere so many nice cards. Maybe this was done back when these cards didn't have the value they have today.
