I was watching this auction.. I wouldn't have bid but thought it was an amazing piece. PWCC ended it early?

It had been bid up to around $1500 with maybe 2 or 3 days left, I believe...

Check the post on the memorabilia side, it was a reprint that fooled 5-6 dealers and Brent.

Another point for Helmar to date the year the cards and other reproductions were produced. I think we've discussed this a few times here.

If the photo that I see is the correct one, it is not a Helmar item. And Helmar doesn't make reproductions. By the way, that is a nice sketch card of a plesiosaurus on your site.

See post 27.

And thanks; those cards were hand-drawn inserts in packs of Upper Deck's 2015 Dinosaur product that they still sell packs of online through their ePack website.
