Card I have been chasing for 25+ years (including in person at 6 Nationals), and have never seen one in person or for sale

Card pictured was specially made for the movie 'Sluggers Wife' and pictures the actor as a ficticious ball player character in Braves uniform from the movie. It is not part of the '84 Topps set nor was ever in packs.

I see a picture of it above so it MUST exist!!!

How was the card originally distributed?

This has to be the rarest card in the 80’s no ?

I though Danny Noonan was a gopher... err... I mean... golfer.

Lol I've been looking for this too! There was one on ebay many years ago when I had no $ to buy it.

MOONBASE1 · 08-07-2023, 03:29 AM

Wonder if the actor O"Keefe ever got a few.
