My recollection when these came on ebay in 2004 is that seller made no mention of these being one of a kind/unique. Also seems to me that if he wanted to maximize $$$ he would have had them authenticated by a TPG.

What I am proposing is that the person who bought them could perpetuate the myth not the original seller. They are graded now and the lore behind them drives prices.
I respect the hobby but I also saw how the hobby proclaimed the blue Old Mill real with no reasonable explanation other than it was examined by respected members of the hobby. Despite their opinion I will never believe that card is real.
