There is an interesting story about this card. In fact, the redemption for the 2000 Leaf Rookie & Stars MC-3 autographed helmet card was cancelled by Leaf. If you had sent in a redemption card, you were allowed to pick from a list of replacement items. So while you could find autographed versions of MC-1, MC-2, MC-4 and MC-5, Leaf never released autographed versions of MC-3. However, the cards with serial numbers 001 to 025, which were meant to be autographed were indeed produced --- just never signed by Montana as part of the redemption program. Years later, the card shown here showed up eBay. Someone had apparently gotten their hands on the 25 unsigned cards and had them signed by Montana. The card is signed in BLUE while the other four autograph cards are signed in black. Also, the card lacks the embossed stamp indicating that the autograph is certified by Leaf. |
