I can't seem to locate it right now; however, I have a card which is both one-of-kind and (at the same time) pretty much worthless.

In the mid '90s, I went to a Phillies game and came across a cool booth near one of the concession stands. It was hosted by Donruss and they were creating custom baseball cards. For roughly $10 or so, you could have a card made - of yourself.

I had on a jersey and cap already...they gave me a bat to hold, took my picture, and made a card right there, on the spot...of ME!

Stats on the back and everything. I was a 4th year player with a wretched batting average (.260, I think) but a little bit of power (averaged 25 HRs or so per year.)

When I finally find that card, I will scan and post.

Best,

Eric
