Like many other sets, completing the task to turn in for the prizes is nearly impossible because of the distribution or printing of certain card(s).

Pretty sure the Freddie "Charlie" Lindstrom card is the hard to obtain one for this set.

a) An intern wrote the item description (and they're clearly NOT an English major)

b) The person proofreading this description was drunk at their desk

c) AI

With grades like those there might be some hope for my Abe Attell, which looks great with 3D glasses.

That Attell gives a new meaning to the nickname Four Eyes
