Great sale but seller left money on table. I think he could have easily sold it for 2k given the inscription. More if he waited till November.

Yep Christmas time very well could have moved the price up. Didn’t the quote start with Hey instead of Listen? Maybe I’m wrong?

So only missing one word from the full quote, I was surprised it sat for almost 2 days if I remember correctly. Cool card.

I wonder if I should pick up a few more cases and just hold them to open closer to Christmas? Could be fun.

Very cool sketch card. Definitely wished more of the artists approached their sketches like this one.

Anyone know if the number of 25 sketches per artist is correct ?

The Glebes did 25, as shown on their facebook page. But the amount drawn by each artist varies. I remember seeing an artist on facebook say they drew 150 I believe. Jeff Benitez must have did a high number also based on eBay sales. So it varies. Maybe there's an artist who only did 10? Who knows. We won't find out unless the artist discloses it themselves.

I did 35. I'm sure some did more, and clearly some did less.

I may have to reach out to some artists for an AP custom. I just want anything with that "I like Santa" kid that talks to Ralphie while waiting in line for Santa at the department store. That kids goofy ass smile and blank awkwardness gets me every time.

It's funny but when I showed family members these autograph cards more than one person asked me why Crypto didn't get that kid to sign. I didn't realize he had such a following LOL. But his role was on par with the elves or Black Bart so it is a mystery why they didn't get him.

Haha thats amazing. Unsure if true or not but I think I read that the kid wasn't even an actor. He was a local that they saw and decided to put him in the movie. LOVE that kid!!!

His autograph would have been pretty neat. The others all sign things regularly but he would've been a really cool addition.

Here's a short youtube video of him more recently to see what he looks like now.

We were only allowed to draw certain people and he was not on the list. If any artist draws him they're breaking contract.

Apologies for my ignorance as I've never reached out to an artist for an AP. Does the contract cover anything drawn outside the set as well? Even though the set has already completed production I couldnt ask an artist in 3 years to make me a sketch of Santa kid? That seems crazy. And if that's true I assume that only covers the artists commissioned specifically for this set?

Interesting...thank you for the reply !!...Seems the Glebes are very illusive and highly desirable based on very few listings on E-Bay...over the last 6 months...
