I heard that Doug Allen or someone at Mastro had done it, but I have not seen it myself.

A friend told me, back in 1996 that he saw an episode in which somebody found a pristine (probably factory set) of 1915 CJs. He proceeded to make a "nice" display by gluing them onto some kind of matt and framing it. He then brought his display, of which he was so proud, to the antique roadshow where he was told that before gluing the cards, they were worth about 100k, but now they were worth about 5k. He just about had a heart attack on the spot.
