Whatever price the card is eventually sold for, it'll be half of what it's really worth.

Agreed! It is a beaten piece of crap, but someone must have somehow convinced the seller that it was worth a boatload of cash!

It is a scrap - the blocky overprint you see is a print layer from another card. It is shifted so you actually have parts of two cards printed here (the gap between them is the space between the images on the two cards).

What do people think about the long-term value of scraps? I could see convincing someone to pay a big price now but does anyone think someone would buy this card for more than a poor common price 20 years from now?

Yes, but when it goes up for sale on BST it will be described as "severely undergraded."

This seller has had a few scraps so its highly likely legit, looking forward to seeing a better scan of it.

Agreed, but the odd thing is that they had different backs. Paskert is a SC 350, while Maloney and Ganzel are Piedmont 350.

I really, really, really need to have the Paskert!!!

Half is being generous, IMO, Rob, but maybe that's just me.

99% positive that is (some mild form of) scrap. Cool card.

Default here's............
johnny!

I have been super busy! card is 1000% SCRAP....

what, no one posted the Maloney???

lol.......if collectors even knew....

Bryan was on the right track.....Chris will elaborate some more on paskert....it has the cool upside down magenta" block" 2 player ghost over print front...

Maloney was the second BEAUTY! another dual upside down magenta over print front...

HONESTLY I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE THINKS ABOUT SCRAP...

I truly love them....

advanced collectors....historians....deciphers of the set....print expert and veteran collectors will appreciate their inherent beauty...

the cards were perfectly "camied" as beaters....they fly right under the radar..

the blank back snodras, the McBride yellow brown and now these two other scraps came from the same collection...

there was also a "tweener" scrap in the lot......ganzel if anyone was astute enough to decern it...

geeze....these cards are so obvious to spot.......you guys have a lot to learn

We'll, for me it's because it would look nice in the bottom left empty slot on this page!!
