It made me think of the "Confederate States of America" which the rebel army put on some of their equipment.

That right there is a card worth overpaying for!

Legend says that when US Grant accepted Lee's sword at Appomattox Court House, he gave him a pack of unopened baseball cards to help ease his loss.

Cool. I was fully expecting someone to jump in with, "Lee never actually surrendered his sword, blah, blah, blah...", so your reply was better.

Printed in CSA would date the card to around the 1860's. So, the conversation should probably be moved over to the pre-WW2 chat group
. When I started collecting cards I picked up one of the fleer checklists mixed in a large lot. Not knowing how scarce it was, I gave it to my daughter with some junk cards to sell at a yard sale. She was thrilled to get $10 for the goofy looking thing. Of course I had to pick one up later in life for a bit more $. Just one of a handful of oops moments. She had a blast selling those cards though.

That's what I meant. A 1963 card printed in the Confederate States of America, e.g., a fake card from a non-existent place.

I kind of thought that's what you meant, but you didn't spell it out so I wasn't sure. Plus, I figured some people wouldn't know what CSA stood for. Anyway, here are photos of one of the fakes.
