In SCD in the mid-70s, they reprinted a newspaper article about a guy who started a card shop, which was a novelty at the time. There was a picture of him smilingly sitting at a table, handling a bunch of stacks of cards bound by rubber bands! Aaaargh!

there was a dealer back in the nineties I'd see all the time at shows in the MD/DC/VA area...who had thousands of t206's all stacked and bound with some type of cord in his showcase. I never did make the effort to search through them...it seemed way too tedious at the time just to look for rare backs!!!!!
