Does that make this an "immaculate inscription"?

I enjoy finding stuff that is so funny like this, as it breaks up the monotony at times, and always gives us a laugh.

It's still the age old problem. Some of the stuff is SOOO bad (like this one), not even a blithering moron will bid. But, some isnt that far off, etc, and people will get stuck.

I turned in two Ruth's yesterday, one w a Scat cert and one w Morales. I think they r still up, but hopefully will get yanked.

To not waste another thread, Look at this lot..wow. I want the Epstein and the Rare Dean Chance variation. Simply a great lot, and the seller has a great attitude.

Another good one! Twenty or so years ago, I attended an exhibit of baseball cards altered by an artist. Mostly paint and magic marker, some mixed media. Some were plays on the player's name, others were just for effect. The only card that I remember was a 70s-ish John Kennedy who was wearing a batting helmet that was shattered. I'd definitely bid more than 80 cents for that one on eBay

I hear the Dean Chance was augmented by Picasso himself...so it's got that going for it.
