The story goes that Sy Berger was on the barge to personally see the cases dumped into the ocean. I bet if he wasn't on that barge to over see it those cases would have made it back into circulation and 1952 Topps high numbers would not be so rare.
In other words barge company takes the money, tell you I am dumping your cards in the ocean, never dump your cards in the ocean, try to resell the cards and make even more money. I guess the cards had no street value back then. Oh well, that didn't happen but it's fun to think of "what ifs".
