I'll join in on the chorus. About 30 years ago, at the White Plains show, I picked up a scrapbook sheet with eight 1915 Crackerjacks. Among them were a Rabbit Maranville rookie and a Branch Rickey. Fronts looked perfect, but the cards were firmly glued onto the page.
A quick soak in my bathroom sink in cold water lifted all the cards off cleanly. I believe I paid about $20 for the whole lot, a pretty good price at the time even if I hadn't gotten the cards off! ![]() Sorry, no before/after pictures. Last edited by akleinb611; 02-15-2025 at 11:57 AM. |

And if you soak it long enough, those pesky caramel stains from 1915 will also disappear, but the card might also disintegrate...
![]() Such thin stock... good luck with the soak.
