Default Rare and mostly worthless: non sports grails

There is nothing quite like searching for years for a card (in my case, it's usually a first issue of a musician, movie star or other celebrity) and then finding it for next to nothing (usually). First example, Julie Andrews' first card, 1954 Chix Radio and TV (British). Second example, 2012 FaceChess Magnus Carlsen. You would think the latter would not be that HTF, but it is. More to follow.
