Posted By: <b>Scott Levy</b><p>Elberfeld Wash is a genuinely rare card, so many of them are graded just because of their value, still there should be a few around!

Posted By: <b>Adam</b><p>Jamie - I know your frustration, so I just sent you an email offering to sell you one of mine (the one below, which I got as part of a lot in a Masto Auction either last year or the year before, I forget which year). I'd even crack it out for you for free so you can receive it raw and ungraded! I agree with comments above that due to the value/rarity of this variation, when you are able to find one it does tend to be graded. But a hammer and a screwdriver can magically turn it back into a raw and ungraded card.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Adam<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s164/aamoniz/elb1.jpg"><br /><img src="http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s164/aamoniz/elb2-1.jpg">
