I know it sometimes takes a bit to download but probably less time than each letter took to write.
 I believe Mr. Burdick is discussing the design and cover of the 1946 ACC....

This has been one my favorite threads on this forum, Leon. Greatly appreciate you taking the time to scan and post the letters. The hobby is always evolving, but it's great to know how it got to this point.

August 1st, 1948 ....Thanks for the Wagner, Mr. Wagner.
Mr. Burdick discusses a bit about mortality and his utmost thanks for the Wags from Mr. John D Wagner. (no relation to Honus). He also discusses giving his collection away and the selling of cards....as they probably won't go up in value. And as for Mr. Corson, he's a dealer, buy low sell high, which was a
 in his eyes. (pages 2-4 numbered in upper left)

Dad and Walter Corson were best friends and I would say my Dad learned from Corson . Dad wasn't just buy low - sell high he is pretty cheap I remember him saying he hesitated buying some HIGH dollar cards for $ 1.00 even into the 1960s .
