A question for card soaker

[smotan_02]

I think hot water is the way to go with tickets. Early tickets are often constructed like bank notes by pressing multiple sheets together. If they soak too long, then the ticket themselves will start to separate. Baseball tickets may be a little different, since the early once weren't that intricate or ornate (as compared to college football tickets). Also, these tickets were not colored like baseball cards.

I was lucky enough to work with Jeff on his scrapbook find and the hot water worked MUCH better than the room temp water and none of the color ran. Im going to pass along the thanks to board member KJJAVIC for the soaking lessons.

One thing for sure is to test it out on something else on the sheet first. If all you have is the tickets with paper on the back, then test it on the less condition ticket first.
