I don't see much possible gain. There's nothing to soak off of it (glue, foreign paper, etc) and it's not that dirty. Soiling looks fairly light, even and typical of a T206. I think the possible down side is greater than the up side on this one, especially with it being a HOFer....that's my opinion, anyway.

If they are not stuck to a scrap book, I see little reason to soak it. This is a nicely looking, gently loved card.

Soak?
It could be risky to soak this one. The slight paper loss on the front and the rough edges could get worse if soaked. It looks to me like it has already been soaked once. Doing it further is probably not going to help.

Thanks for all the input guys, I appreciate it. Ron, (or anyone) was just wondering what makes you think the card has been soaked already? I don't mind if it has been, but would love to learn more.
Thanks guys,

There is no reason to soak this card. You can tell it may have been exposed to moisture by the way the card's edges look -- somewhat bloated and frayed.
I do not think much harm would come with a minute water soaking followed by a press between two sheets of printer paper, under a stack of books (how I have done it in the past). But you are not going to make it look any cleaner.
