mashup - snottygobble - 12-28-2011

[Image: 21831.jpg]

s'up geezer's, have had a bit of time on my hands so i thought i'd query this. has anyone seem something like this before? is it common? at a glance it looks like you're average 'NBA Top Prospects' card of Byron Houston (no disrespect to Byron) from the 92-93 Upper Deck series but from the looks of it, it appears the card has been cross-polinated with one of those 'Fanimation' cards (specifically) 'Agent 23' from the same series...this would explain the 'Agent 23' appearing upside down on the card. it's probably not a particularly rare thing, i'm sure they printed off many many more genetic mutations but i've had the card for a while now as was just interested to know.

anyway, i'll check back later and see if anyone is remotely interested/has a similar story.

cheers

S.

nothing really rare about it, upper deck has been doing this for the last 20 years lol, grab a blaster box of 09-10 ud basketball, youll get a bunch of error cards.

If it had a picture of agent 23 with Byron Houston's name on the card, it might be worth more. But I doubt you could get more than $20 if you sat on it a while and found a collector of error cards that would pay even that.
