Brad GreenYou went to your grandmother's house a few months ago. Your grandmother points to the kitchen table. On the kitchen table is a box with "Leon Luckey's Candy Bars" printed on top. You open the box to find one hundred different baseball cards. You have never seen these cards before. If they are real, you know you could possibly have something very valuable.
Your grandmother tells you that your late grandfather used to work for Leon Luckey's Candy Bar Company and brought these home one night many, many years ago. You spend the next few weeks/months researching these cards and this company. You talk to several people who used to work for this company. Your conclusion is that these cards were made in 1920. Based on conversations with workers from that company, you found out that only twenty of these sets were made before the company went bankrupt. Therefore, you know that you really do have something rare on your hands!
So what do you do?
Choice (1): Leave the cards in the box and don't say another word to anybody. (Therefore, you don't have them cataloged...)
Choice (2): You call Bob Lemke. You tell him all about the cards and your research. He catalogs the cards and they are listed in the 2007 Edition of SCD.
Please tell me which choice you would make and why you would make it.
