BBCE 1952 Topps Wax Pack "Brick"

The problem of course is that even if true, and even if the packaging protected the cards a bit, the barge company probably made it a habit of offloading in roughly the same area, and probably did so into the 60's if not later.

So the cards will be under at least a decades worth of other "stuff"

I wonder how many species of marine worms and other bottom feeders would see waxpaper and pasteboard as a veritable feast from above?
