Mike ErnstIn a previous thread, that question is posed. How real a concern is it?
I'm not that concerned.
In 1971 I took three of my T-206 duplicates, put them in an oval frame on a felt background, and gave them to my Dad.
He displayed them on his desk until he died in 1990. Since then I have had that on the dresser in our bedroom--I recently compared the colors of those three with the three that are in page pockets and have been out of the light since 1911, and I could see no difference in the depth or tone of coloring.
My experience with a display of 1970 and 80's Topps cards of my long-time friends and teammates Gary Neibauer and Doug Bair are quite different--they are significantly faded.
Any others have experiences to share?
