Ha ha!! In looking at 1962 cards last night, I found a seller whose 'X' actually means 'X.' Virtually all of his listings have the card name/number/player/grade followed by the brief disclaimer, "Pics show my reflection."

If it's a marketing move, it's brilliant. Like looking for "Nina" in Hirschfeld drawings, he made me check out each of his auctions to see if I could find him in the photos!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
