There were exactly 2 Drum cards at the show.....the one I nabbed and the one in the Goodwin collection. No other Uzits, RHs, or Lenox cards to be had either. I finally got my Drum!

Ummm... Did 707 buy this card back from Chicago206?

I would invest the $5 for a re-slab to tab it a "Drum" from an unknown back on the holder. Makes you wonder how many unknowns have really scarce backs??
