Man, the times, and any hope for your soakers?

Well - we can at least narrow it down to post 1912 for creation... the NY Americans are identified as the Yankees, not the Highlanders...

I figured if they were soakable the seller would have done it.

I second that. If I owned these, I would leave them alone. This is a labor of love from a long ago fan. Priceless IMO.

I saw those cards when he was selling them all together and it would be cool to have them all. Framing and Hanging those would look awesome if you had a nice game room or office.

Not necessarily the case, since on the T-205's they are identified as Yankees.

How about buying some beaters and making one yourself? Get library paste on eBay and find somebody who knows calligraphy.

As a "soaker" I've been watching these for weeks now.
They are cool, and would be neat to own and frame, as is. Unforunately, in my opinion, quite over priced.
Also, probably not worth soaking off, mainly beacause (once again, my opinion) the grand majority of the cards look "old time" trimmed.
