The J.W. Porter card. The card itself cost $1, shipping in a plain white envelope without a cardsaver was another $2. To fully appreciate the wear and tear on it, you have to put it on top of another '53 Topps, and see how much of the card has ceased to exist. When I sent it to Mr. Porter (~18 months ago) he included a signed custom card, and a note explaining that he felt so bad about the condition of the card that he threw in the custom.
