Default Newsboy Mike Griffin

I have decided to contribute a little to the board by asking a question about cards and tell a little story. Many may not know but I really sold off all my cards back in the mid 90's and turned to coins as my father was retiring from the business and gave it to me. I come here because Cards have never left my blood and I enjoy picking up a couple here and there off BST.
Anyway Back around 1993 I sold some Newsboy Cabinets to Mastro and one of them was a intact but probably a PSA 2 or 3 because the pic was faint but readable. I told Mastro about this card being uncataloged and he said I was nuts. I sold him that card and 8 others including a decent Ward and a Rusie with a corner clip. This was at the old annual Cincy fall show. I don't think it is held anymore. Well the next year I ran into Mastro drinking a coke in the bar and asked him if happened to figure out that what I told him about the Griffin being unlisted was the truth and he looked at me like I was nuts and said he dumped it off cheap because it was not a Baseball player and it was a faint image.I never believed him. How could it be anyone else.
Well now that it is Listed, I just wonder if anyone on this board may own that card? And also how many are known to exist today?

I don't think think that is the card I owned. I seem to remember the image being not that clear. Maybe someone cleaned up the image on the one I owned but that image seems a bit clearer. It has been many years but it was the worse image of the lot I had. Maybe there is more than one out there.

Thanks
Mark

Edited to add:
On second thought it may have been the name that was hard to read. It was many years ago. Anyway that was a card I should have never sold.
