Brian LindholmeApologies, no thread hijack intended. I hope this only helps generate interest in this rare card.
I have this card too, it is without doubt my finest card.
Ungraded and currently packed up while I prepare to move due to my recent job promotion. I have only lousy scans on one of my other computers. I'm going to get it graded but could use a dash of advice.
The card has really nice corners, no creases, good registration, bright colors on the front. Back's green ink is a bit light (like the scan shown here)There is a scuff causing some paper loss that is the size of an eraser head on the back. Grading the front it has a chance for a 6. What do you estimate the very minor back damage would reduce the card down to, and which grading company would the preference be if I was looking to sell?
Now again, this is not to hijack the thread, nor a promotion
to a sale. I'm not really interested in selling but as a famous orator once orated "Everything is for sale...even my mom, but she'll cost ya!"
The scan that BCD included just got me interested, I can only recall seeing 2 others in the 20 years I've been collecting. I bought this one from TIK back in 98 or so. It is great to see another !
Now,back to your regular programming. If you have advice for me you can email me directly or begin a thread of "our own"
Thanks
