As stated above, Mr. Burdick would most likely be displeased with the current state of the hobby.
And as to his mention of soaking; people would have started soaking T206s soon after the cards came out. A collector gathers cards, pastes them into an album, then it isn't long until additional cards have been gathered which could lead to reorganizing the order on the pages. How many of us have moved cards a few spaces over in 9 or 15 pocket sheets? I truly believe that there are very few T206s that are in decent shape or better that didn't get soaked at some point. And I see nothing wrong with that. Founding fathers... Burdick, Nagle, Wagner (the collector). A wonderful letter, and thread. Kinda makes me wish I'd not gotten a hardbound, newer ACC; and had instead gotten that 1939 edition. Thanks for posting.
