one last time, avert your eyes

i have a sickness. i am drawn to these mutilated cards like a moth to a flame.
this one is frank howard, the 1960 national league rookie of the year. he kindly signed his 1988 pacific legends card for a fan, and sometime later, some guy in a suit looking to make some money cut it up, surrounded it with glitter, and stuck it in a slab.

and i'm the damn fool that bought it.

  1. I'm embarrassed to say... that I've actually spent my hard earned money on a handful of these myself.
