Default Pepper Martin

I have a larger version Tattoo Orbit of Pepper Martin that I picked up completely by accident on ebay about 7-8 years ago. The seller had it listed as 'photo card', or something along those lines. I recognized it as one of those funky self developing Tattoo Orbits, and needing it as a type card I bid and won it at the opening bid of $5.00. When I received it, lo and behold, it was one of the incredibly scarce large versions. About a year later I was able to track down a smaller version of Martin for about three times the price.

The moral of the story is...always ask to borrow Leon's quarter when scanning your cards for sale.
