VIPs to Receive Set of “Black Swamp Find” Promos

Heritage Auctions has announced that they are creating a set of 4 promotional cards to commemorate the “world’s greatest attic find” in Defiance, Ohio. Nicknamed the “Swamp Find”, the actual cards will be part of a display at both the Heritage Auctions and PSA Booths at the 33rd National. Estimate on the value of the entire find of 700+ cards is in excess of $3,000,000. Some of these cards will be sold at Heritage’s Auction on Thursday, August 2 at Camden Yards.

The promotional cards are created in the same style as the pristine E-98 cards (see images below), which shocked the collectibles world. This set of 4 cards will include Hall of Famers Connie Mack, Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb and Cy Young. The cards will be encased in plastic and authenticated by PSA. Heritage has made a limited number of these cards available to the National. We are pleased to announce that each paid SUPERVIP/VIP will receive a complete set of the four cards. Because of the limited number of these sets available, we expect that VIP/SUPERVIP packages will sell out. Don’t get shut out; purchase your SUPERVIP/VIP PACKAGE now!

I said, "Maybe Legendary Auctions will produce a reprint set of these with their company logo, contacts, auction schedule on the back, etc,...". I was referring to the E107 set, not these, but close enough. :D

SUPERVIP!? Is that how Bruces get "behind the table" access at the National?

Are SUPERVIP's anything like Wile E Coyote being a super genius?

Are you allowed to sell something on ebay before you have it? Plus it doesn't even show a picture of what you would actually be getting; it shows the real cards. And what if this guy isn't "VIP" enough to get the set. ;)
