Default Willy Dipkin

Yes, you read that right.

Willy "The Dupe" Dipkin was, of course, Second Baseman for the Springfield Isotopes. His "Fish Face" card is one of the more valuable issues from the late 20th Century. Can you imagine kids going to the local hobby shop and plunking their allowance on the counter to buy this? Even worse, they packaged it inside a comic book! Perish the thought...

In all seriousness, I found this while going through a comic collection I bought last year. I thought it'd be cool to show the book and card.

Not a buy/sell/trade post. I like silly things like this and plan to keep it.
