Nothing better than a $2 investment to help you learn the ins and outs of soaking a 135 year old card! We can be very thankful for the existence of these non-sport A&Gs.

Agreed! Very thankful. If my attempts had ruined the card though, I'd still be sad even though I had only invested $2 but since it came out looking so nice, I am quite happy with the results!

Have you thought about just getting the glue area wet? (i.e. I don't see why the whole card - especially put face down - needs to be soaked)
