The Blue Chip set was never released, though a few cards (samples/promos?) leaked out. I saw this on eBay several years ago and as a McReynolds collector, jumped all over it (how could i not for $10?)

I'm not sure if these cards were hand cut from a sheet or not - though I do find it odd that the top of the card is trimmed. Usually I try to stay away from altered cards, but given the rarity of the item, it doesn't bother me that much. I have never seen another McReynolds Blue Chip card before.

Thanks,

Todd,

Is the back of the card blank backed or is it a finished back? Like to view if it's finished. Yeah, I don't think you could have gone wrong w/the price.

Regards,

Mark
