Cards and water don't mix
Posted By: dan mckee
This same thing happened to us, electric was out and sump pump didn't function. My 1971 and 1962 topps sets were completely submerged for hours in plastic sheets. We stayed up all night with friends and family and neighbors carefully removing each card and placing them between towels with books on top. Both sets were saved! I think I had to replace about a dozen 1971 topps where the black borders were destroyed during removal. Water and cards do mix! My 1962 set was vg/ex and is now EX with no creases! They were all flattened out. Dan
