 Long-time hobbyist, collecting advocate and the Orlando Sentinel’s own Chris Olds recently had some fun during his day job (hey, that sounds familiar) creating some truly one-of-a-kind “Cards That Never Were.”

Outstanding work, Chris; thanks for sharing.

For those who may have missed it, the cards are worth a closer look. We’ll get to working on approximate book values now.

This would be a set I would chase if these existed.

In 1989 Charlie Sheen led the league in hookers bagged. A Charlie Sheen – Heidi Fleiss dual auto would be sweet but you would have to handle it with gloves on and a tetanus shot afterwards

I think Eddie Harris has all the best lines in the movie. Go back and watch it and dare to disagree with me!
