The card is a regular sized card and I believe it is what some people call the "floating" promo, but I don't know too much about it

I have not seen it either. But this is not the "floating" Yoda card if that is what you meant....

Can you post a scan of the back of the card as well? Thanks.

Mike.

The card is recorded in the PCE as the split level promo. The source is unknown but presumably must be Topps.

It looks like it was a promo for a technology that they decided not to go with in the end.

Any of you Star Wars Guru's have any ideas ?????

I was wondering if anyone knew where this Betty Boop 1993 Calendar card may have come from?

And what about this Youth Awareness Checklist Promotional card?

And I know what the third one is, but there is not a "non-nude" John Bolton Vampir Collection promo with the girl laying down and "Spanish" text on the back listed in the PCE Guide, only a "nude" version.

I haven't found any of these in the guide. Does anyone know?

thanks

There is one of the John Bolton cards on Ebay right now and accoring to the seller "YOU ARE PURCHASING A VERY VERY RARE JOHN BOLTON VAMPIR COLLECTION NN (no number) CHROMIUM PROMO CARD WITH SPANISH TEXT ON THE BACK GIVEN OUT IN BARCELONA, SPAIN ON MAY 5-8th 1994 FROM HIGH HEELS!!! SOME OF THESE PROMOS HAD COVER-UP INK ACROSS SOME OF THE WORDS ON THE BACK AND SOME DIDN'T, THIS IS ONE THAT DOES. THERE ARE ALSO NUDE VERSIONS WITH FRENCH AND SPANISH TEXT ON THE BACK AND NON-NUDE VERSIONS WITH ENGLISH TEXT ON THE BACK. THIS VERSION SHOWS A NON-NUDE GIRL WITH SPANISH TEXT ON THE BACK. IT IS VERY RARE AND IS NOT LISTED IN THE PROMO CARD ENCYCLOPEDIA AND PRICE GUIDE 2008 EDITION"

I have one of the uncensored ones but mine (bought in a screwdown case) has Capital City Retailer Conference International 1994 'card' stuck over the spanish text and is numbered 1 of 200. Don't know how the orignal Spanish text is numbered.

Picked these up today and don't see in PCE under Sunkist, Basketball, or 'WP'. Anyone know about these? Cool Jack Davis art and would want to get rest of set if there are more of them.

These were inserted in Sunkist's Fruit Roll-ups, similar to their three series of Dinasaur cards which preceded them. They are listed in BENJAMIN’S SPORT AMERICANA GUIDE TO NON SPORT CARDS!! and were released around 1991.

They came in three series "Wacky Players"
1st Basketball(9)
2nd Baseball(8)
3rd Football(10)

#1 thru 27

I believe that Sport Americana erroneously lists all three as having nine cards.

Thanks Bill. Also explains what that 'WP' meant. Something else for the want list as I assume/hope Jack Davis art on others. Will have to browse Benjamin when get home.
