New FB Acquisitions

I just picked up a big lot of mostly 1970's college football pins for resale. There's a problem with the ribbons though, they smell musty from being stored. Any suggestion(s) on how to get the odor out would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff. I agree, it is a great set. There is really no other football card set like them. Very unique. No plans at the current time to complete them. But, you never know when opportunity will knock.

Couple of pickups from the Moeller show a week ago. The Hammer finishes that set and Gifford gets me down to one card (73-Pihos) in that set

If you're still dealing with that musty smell, try dryer sheets. It tends to do the trick when it comes to things like that. I've done it with old books and records with success. Just wrap a few of them around the ribbons and put them in a ziplock bag for a few days.
