Has there been a sherd of evidence on this story?

PSA divers on their "Standard Team" were seen plunging into the cold water at around 3am Eastern time.

They are expected to do a thourogh job of Research and ID and are expected to resurface after Quality Check #2 in about 1.5 years or so!

Peace, Mike

PS The "Express divers" should be up sooner but no guarantees and they cost more to hire!

Yes, Sy Barger , the head off of Topps at the time, orchestrated the dump and freely talked about it. To add salt to the wound, they were all high series.

Is said to have been done by the then "VP of Licensing' for Topps - Cy Berger in 1959.
