These were handed out at the PSA luncheon. A very cool item.
Pretty wild these are on EBAY already.
EBAY item 360711140414 is at $67
They are numbered to 500 which is pretty cool.
I am on my Ipad so if someone will post a link that would be great.

Hmmm, wonder why the reverse was printed the way it was???
I flipped it over so you could read it

They did it that way on purpose. The original Cracker Jack cards were made that way. You'd glue the copyright info part onto a scrapbook. Then, if you bent the card, you could flip it up and read the bio information on the back.

Does anyone know the story behind the raw one's? There seem to be quite a few of those too.
Michelle came with me to the show so I was able to get two of the cards which was exciting.

No, only those that attended the luncheon received the Slabbed version. the raw ones were given out in bunches at the Memory Lane Booth as well as one stapled to a flyer in the VIP bag

to 500 CJ's of Ruth was in the PSA bag you received, along with a current SMR, some card savers,
your free card submission sheet, a great looking hardbound Cracker Jack book, etc...

This makes since. I think there were just over a few hundred at the luncheon.
can we ask PSA to have more sheets printed?
I don't see why only 500 people should have this national treasure. That seems
purely arbitrary and unfair.

This just closed on the 14th. The price seems to be holding up pretty well so far.

I think this is pretty solid with how much time has passed since they first hit EBAY.
<< <i>I think it's still waaaaayyy to short a period of time to say thy will hold value >>
I don't disagree. There have been 40 sales of the card so far on EBAY and it still is selling above $100 which is a good number of cards to have traded hands. Obviously time will tell what happens.
I have no plans to sell mine so it is really irrelevant what happens to the value but it is certainly entertaining to watch.
"Second, on the label….that issue was brought to my attention after the fact. Our staff made the error. They were all supposed to be centered. In fact, if you or anyone else prefers the centered look and wants to re-holder it - it will be at no charge."
