The owner, Brian Seigle (sp?), came on the old chatboard, Fullcount, and somewhat defended the card although maybe not it's condition. He made a very eloquent statement saying the card almost transcends card collecting and is at some higher level. He spoke about it in the context of bringing folks into the hobby, being a great media piece, and it being the holy grail of card collecting. He also stated that he went around to grade schools (I believe, but schools for sure) and spoke about cards and collecting which gives more publicity to the hobby....which in the long run is good. It really put the card in a little different light. He was very well spoken, said his piece, and left. regards
