In this month's BC Price Guide, prices are given for Kellogg's
3-D cards. I noticed they said that the cards were susceptible
to cracking if not handled and stored properly. What is the
best way to store these things? Most of the ones I own have
this distinct curl to them and I'm afraid that if I put them
in something to flatten them out, it will cause them to crack
even more than some of them are. I ordered a full set of
1974's and at least 1/4 of them came cracked. I would like to
at least preserve the ones that are still nr-mt shape.
Any ideas?

-Does this mean that nobody has any 3-d's out there or is
it that nobody cares or that nobody knows??????? Pat.

I care, but I don't have any and I didn't know of them until your
note.

I have some. None of mine are cracked, but they bend in the middle,
as if they had a rubber band around them. Not sure what to tell
you, I'm just going through them now...

I've seen the Kellogg Cards curl and crack, if not keep in something
flat to begin with. Also, extreme heat curls them up, my experience is
to keep all your cards in a dry, constant temperature controlled
atmosphere. I think thats the next money maker, providing colletors
with large atmospheric controlled cases, so cards won't mildew, crack,
fade out, all those bad things that happen to cards when they are put
in the wrong places. I think these Kellogg cards are very unique, and
have a nice look to them, almost like the twilight zone look.

I agree Rick, the 3-D's are really nice looking cards. I wish
I had more of them. They would look great in plastic sheets
if you could ever find any the right size and weren't worried
about them cracking. I just wonder if flattening them out in
a binder would hurt them after they've been in their semi-curled
state for so long. Besides the baseball 3D's, I also have an
early 70's John Brodie poised for a pass.
I just think it's funny that there really isn't more interest
in these things.
Pat.
