I can personally recall being warned specifically about the erased McDonald card back in 1990-91. With little effort, these cards can be erased to show a blank white area on just about any section of the cards, this makes it extremely important to be able to hold a copy and tilt it under a good light source to see if the gloss has been dulled, before purchasing."
So, I took a closer look at my card and, lo and behold, it's been erased. This was more than 25 years ago, but I absolutely do not remember buying this card (or any) at a card shop. I was strictly a kid you bought packs at the corner store.
Sorta disappointing, but such is life. Happy collecting! |
I actually remember seeing a second line in Beckett for the McDonald error card. Is that the "error" or did he have a legit one?
Oops, maybe I should have read the other postings. Ignore.
