How well do E91 cards soak
Just got an E91A card off of eBay that was glued on to scrap paper and was deciding whether he needed a bath or not. My question to the board is how do E91 cards soak? Card also has some ind of stamp on the back so ting to see if the odds of card will survive. What is everyone’s experience with this one?

E91 soaking experience
Although I have never soaked an E91, your success will depend on the glue used to adhere the card to the paper. If water soluble glue was used, then you should be okay. Most glues at the turn of the century were water soluble. If they were glued in at a later date (and ther is no way to really know), then you may run into some problems as those glues in many cases are not water soluble. I recently attempted to soak some early 1900's non-sport cards and learned pretty quickly that the cards must have been glued at a later date, as they did not soak well, resulting in paper loss on the back.
