Only a cool $5,695.00 for this one of a kind beauty. Both a green tint and missing ink variation card that you can build a dream on.
I gotta say, though, how can you NOT admire the craftsmanship involved with these inventions? He actually covers the label with something before soaking it in the sun, so the bright red remains unscathed (but be sure to ignore the bleached out areas plaguing the rest of the holder from spending too much time catching rays). Well played, well played, indeed.
Thought experiment:
If you slathered a holder in high-SPF sunscreen and left it on the beach, would the card inside fade??

His gimmick is even better than that though. He shows the card as originally listed at $8,500, but is now offering some lucky buyer a whopping 33% discount, down to $5,695. Meanwhile, a quick Ebay search of undamaged '62 Topps cards of Aaron shows a normal PSA6 of this card will likely sell in the $400 range. Neat marketing trick, huh?
