Postal worker won the Walmart redemption in 1996. She had to sell the card to pay the taxes. I think she got about $600K for it at the time. Not bad for sending in a few redemption cards and winning the lottery.
I'm pretty sure it was the Gretzky/McNall Wagner card and is the one that was later graded PSA 8 although Mastro admitted to trimming it from a sheet.
Sold for a paltry $2.8 million the last time it traded hands if my recollection is correct.
