Mike D's Adventures in Wax

[Mike D.]

Some early notes:

• This is a LOT of packs
• These packs have GUM in them. 30+ year old gum.
• I remember when this gum was new. It wasn't even good then.
• The gum stained the top card in each pack, so those will go to the shredder
• That still leaves us 4,600+ cards
• The gum in the tightly wrapped packs have also warped the cards slightly
• I think the warp will go away if I put the cards tightly in a box
• 4 boxes in, and I have 7 complete sets, plus well on the way to several more
• These are so old, the stickers aren't sticky anymore.
• Good thing I don't have 100 30 year old sticker yearbooks I was looking to fill
• These plastic wrappers are a bit of a pain. Next buy may need to be REAL wax packs
• This is gonna take a while!

No, although that might be the only other food that would survive 30 years in a wax pack!

Put together a gum stained set. I bet someone will buy it.
