Default I won one of those
I won one of those cards as well... it's not soaking well. Whatever adhesive was used does not appear to be water soluble. May just take some time. Have done two soaks... will give it another shot.

I don't know guys...that Eagle Brand Condenced Milk back is pretty rare...I don't ever remember seeing one of those before. Send it to PSA for grading and validation of a new back that we can all clamor after!

If that Eagle ribbon bleeds, you may end up with a blue card.

I'll give round three a good 12+ hours; the previous two were maybe 3-4 hours each.
