Just like most of you, I also have nine $20 bills in my pocket that I don't know what to do with.....
First I was just gonna burn them for amusement, but then I saw this:

Ebay auction - step right up and see The Holy Grail of card collecting

Seriously, even though this seller over uses the term Holy Grail, he does actually have a LEGITIMATE Holy Grail, check it out:
I just need to secure a home equity loan before I can click "Buy it Now"

Ebay auction - just your average X-out basketball wax box case

Both are of jaw-dropping caliber in their own way.

Pro Set was a dumb company run by monkeys.

Is that a joke? I remember all the Pro Set crap going on but I don't think I'd ever heard of this. Was this a real card, or am I just missing the boat here?

Yup. I thought the same thing.

It is a real card. They even have a listing for it in the price guides. I guess they made it as a joke, but somehow, it mysteriously made its way into packs. Kinda like the 1990 Topps George H Bush card.

No thanks. For only $50 more than this guy is asking, I could get a '73 Topps Schmidt rookie in PSA 8.
