I was going through a box of well worn junk: mostly 1991 Topps, Donruss and Fleer baseball, 1991-92 football, and a scattering of basketball. I was getting ready to donate the shoebox but figured I'd go through it first just in case.
I did a double-take when I came across this Karl Malone card:
What kinda card is this? What's that black box all about? I put my thumb on it thinking it was a heat sensative hidden image. Nope. Then I turned the card over and realized it was a Fleer Ultra Rebound King insert card.
Here's the back:
What do all Fleer Ultra have in common folks? Gold! There's no gold on the front. There's the error!
Here is a similar card from the 1994 Ultra Rebound King subset:
So, see all the gold that's missing from the Karl Malone card? No gold Karl Malone, no gold 93-94 Fleer Ultra, and no gold Rebound King logo.
Sweet. If you dig this card and want it for you collections of errors and variations, I posted it on sportlots. Please keep the wagering friendly.
With the price of gold over $1700/ounce, someone probably took it to one of those "We buy Gold" places.
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm just kidding, but it's late. Or early. I'm really tired.
I love that card of 'Zo!
