I’ve always found this story dubious at best.
Berger did not start telling it until decades later when he was an older man, and from what I know - there were no other Topps employees at the time who ever confirmed it. Realistically, why not just use the dumpster to get rid of the stuff instead of renting out a garbage scowl or whatever and sailing off into the East River? Don’t get me wrong. It’s a great story. I would love for it to be true. But it doesn’t make a ton of sense. The idea that it’s fiction born when the hobby became popular and Berger and others started getting more requests for comments and interviews makes a lot more sense to me.
