His website also has a wealth of information on forensic analysis, which will come in handy when examining not only baseball cards, but currency and historical documents, as well. This article on forensic light is fascinating, and useful to collectors.
Is David Cycleback a Nome De Plume, or is the guy's last name really Cycleback? |
Awesome, thank you!
