Old Ice Scripts faded

[3laceyboys]

Sad to see that the old Ice scripts I have and had stored away in a box for 15years look to be faded. Not bad but faded. Have many of you see or experience this?

I always loved those cards but wondered if the ink would last. Sad that yours have faded.

I have a few of the oldest versions in my boxes. I'll have to give them a look. That's sad

I have had autos in the man cave fade... taken them all own and placed into boxes/binders.

The only autos on display now are on fabric - like Letter Marks.

I've seen a lot fade, but not all. So I guess it's luck of the draw I guess. Same with the old 05-06 The Cup Limited Logos.

Not to hijack the thread... but my pinnacle Henderson auto is also just about gone...one of the few PC Cards that isn’t the Hammer... .this might be a great thread for the OP to “sticky” as to all faded autos... cheers!! Paul

Sad. i think is a combination of ink and surface of the card that affects it.

I will look at mine when I get back home but I have some Upper Deck Sweet Spot baseball autographs and those autographs have almost totally faded away.

It's a shame to have such high values cards fade and become worthless. I get that sun damage and UV damage is a thing but.. for packaged up cards stored away for 10 years to fade is really sad. Time to go to Paint pens? I dont know what the real answer is but very discouraging.
Don't tell my wife how much I spent on them... LOL

ARGH - I have quite a few ice scripts from over the years as well. I've displayed some of them, but for the most part, have kept them boxed up out of any light. I haven't looked through them in a while. Hope they haven't started to fade too.
