Posted By: <b>Glen V</b><p>There is a white border version of the Susini issue put out by London Idol Cigarettes. That's what it looks like, but it could always be some ultra rare unknown issue... <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>bigfish</b><p>I bought a different looking Speaker in an SGC 30 holder for 75.00. I do not think it is worth a ton but who knows......

Posted By: <b>Glen V</b><p>I've seen them go in the $50-100 range, but it seems like they should be worth more than that. (The next one probably will, now that a few people from this board will start looking for them.)<br /><br />The back of mine has an R. J. Hill back too. I thought they had a London Idol back - maybe that version exists too. Eric has one on his web-site: <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/uncatcards.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/uncatcards.htm</a> Maybe he'll chime in and post a picture of it's back.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1223052583.JPG">
