I started collecting in 85 as a six year old kid and wasn't paying any attention to the older cards. Some years later I would see cards in the cases at shops and none were nice. I do think there are some cards out there that clearly survived in great condition but how many is clearly up for debate. |

CONSERVING is defined as: a careful preservation and protection of something
PRESERVATION is defined as: to keep safe from injury, harm, or destruction : protect. RESTORING is defined as: to return (something) to an earlier or original condition by repairing it, cleaning it, etc. FRAUD is basically defined as: intentional perversion of truth in order to induce another to part with something of value When you send your cards in to PSA/SGC/BGS you are CONSERVING your valuables by having them encased. Shellacking a baseball was intended to CONSERVE. Brent and possibly Moser bought cards, cracked them out of their slabs, RESTORED them and then committed FRAUD by not disclosing the work they did. |

Does anyone ever stop to ask how a 70 year old card could be in such pristine condition? Did it go straight into a non-existent holder as soon as it came out of the pack? Where was this card stored for the first 30 years of its life that protected it so well?

I also had a nice stack of 66 Topps in NrMint condition. The original owner opened the packs and put them in a drawer. They sat untouched till I got them 20 years later. It does happen but it is rare. |
