Found this today while doing some internet surfing:

I'm a fan of DYI cards and whatnot, but this is kind of taking the fun a bit too far,  Especially with how many "novices" will probably not realize that there is no such 1975 Dock Ellis Topps card with that image.

Yeah, I'm probably being too hard on it, but with how great Photoshopers are with all sorts of DIY designs, I'd wager it would send novices about the hobby on wild goose chases to hunt cards that never actually existed.

I have no sympathy for the suckers that can't do 30 seconds of research.

I agree.  Just giving some two cents on how silly this DIY in particular is.

So explain this, is this for sale somewhere, someone trying to pass it off as authentic or is it just a mockup of what could have been?

And here's the actual PSA Register #03124703

As RiverCity said, probably just someone having a bit of fun with Dock Ellis and Photoshop.
