1982 FBI Disc ~ Fernando Valenzuela

Hahahahaha!! All I can do is laugh. Really? I was able to score this and the Garvey wax cup lid in the same month after years of searching, really!?

I was shocked to see this appear on ebay. It's the only one I've ever seen. The dude was asking way more than I thought one would sell for but when you have a super rare item I suppose you can ask more and see what people will pay. I talked him way down and let's put it this way....I had to sell a Matt Kemp Bowman Chrome Blue Auto'd rookie card to buy it, but it is sooo worth it! Especially since it isn't even cut out, the entire Bantam soda box is intact! These were on a short print run and because they were on the bottom of a soda box the few that were printed were thrown in the trash. The very few that made it out alive are found with scuffs and scratches from being dragged and stocked on the supermarket shelves. This one is in outstanding condition! This soda was only sold in Canada by the way, and predominantly in the East, in the Toronto, Quebec, Ottawa areas.
