I think the numbers would be dramatically different if the entire card collecting hobby were polled. My guess is that if another forum such as the PSA forum took the same poll that it would be overwhelmingly against card soaking and erasing. |

We aren't the CU boards....After looking at those boards a few times I would kindly place my bets on this board for experience knowledge...though I am sure they are some nice people over there too....And you know the old saying.....if cows pooped butter you wouldn't have to churn |

Maybe then card soaking and erasing is acceptable for this vintage forum and not the overall hobby? |

I guess if you did a poll on the other board we would know. Less than that and I don't think we should make that assumption....Like I say those are good folk over there and I would let them speak for themselves. This board has spoken in the survey given.... |

One thing to note is that conservation exprets will tell you that it is not good to keep antique prints incontact with wood, glue and old paper. Even when the print is in an antique wooden frame and matte, the conservator will recommend you remove the print and rematte it in proper paper, for preservation of the print. My guess is that many conservators would recommend that an expensive baseball card be removed from old paper scrap and glue to help preserve the card. |

I am not disagreeing with you. The results would be interesting to see. I also agree that the participants in the forum are different than the participants in the Beckett and CU forums, just like prewar card might be different than modern cards. |

"If alterations were so acceptable by the hobby at large, then I do not believe it would be a big deal to list the work done in the auction descriptions. If alterations were so acceptable, I do not believe there would be statutes mandating disclosure" |

Wes, there's no question that alterations do change the value of the card, and alteration that changes the value should be disclosed at sale and, in most cases, legally must. |

My opinion is that it's downright silly to say if in 1955 a kid pasted a T206 into the pages of his book, it's wrong to remove the card. The book and the T206 aren't original together-- they have nothing to do with each other than a stupid kid glue them together. The crime, if there is one, is the kid pasting the card into the book not removing the card from the book. Removing the card is bringing the card back, or closer, to its original state. |

"The Darby box is in it's natural habitat, nailed to a garage in North Carolina" or "The rare Darby box is shown here in pristine condition, with the original garage still attached" sound like lines from a Monty Python skit. |

I think the most interesting thing about this poll was how few people split their votes with yes to one but no to the other. Rather than depending on the actual action taken, it seems that overall the whole topic is a matter of philosophical viewpoint. |

It’s the discloser more than anything that bothers me not the soaking. I think they should be removed, and not wasted, as long as its disclosed, and their values reflected that they were removed, pressed, soaked what ever. |

I think I've come up with a fair compromise. The new hobby rule is: You are allowed to remove stuff from cards, but anything you remove you have to eat. For example, if you are willing to eat an entire Victorian scrap album, soak away. |
