I know Ed very well. I don't know if he has seen one but I will guess, no. One was in a Lipset auction about 12 yrs ago,. It's the only one I have ever seen for sale. I won several other extremely rare cards in that auction so didn't go for that one. Little did I know I would never see another for sale *(yet).

I know the person that bought that one and the person he sold it to. I hope I never own that one because it means another hobbyist will have passed away. I don't see the current owner ever selling it. I do have high hopes though, as at least 10-20 are documented in Egan's reference manual on Early Candy cards.
