1956 TOPPS HOCUS FOCUS
recently came into 72 Topps Hocus Focus cards from 1956, can't find anything on them of substance. does anyone know of current price list? even non-sports doesn't list them.
also, i read of wetting undeveloped or poorly ones, then exposing them to light and it works. but nothing was said of the stopping agent that must have been inside the wrapper you had to rub on them.
anything and all information appreciated

2. Cards which have not been well-developed cannot be considered to be in EX/NM or better condition.
3. Cards separated from panels can grade in NM condition due to the fact that not all cards were issued in panel form.
