Yeah, they are really tough. I've been lucky to find a couple in my travels.dino wrote:If I remember right those Reggie Jackson one sheets are VERY hard to get. Sonicdan or Zero can probably confirm.

He just bought out a comic shop in Rochester NY that specialized in independant books. In addition to finding some pre unity Solar and Magnus books for a buck a piece, the two additional items were a Shadowman flat and a page sized advertisement for the Valiant Files trading cards they put out back in the day.
What makes the advertisement really cool is it was signed by Reggie Jackson, #44. Todd handed it to me and we were both perplexed as to whose sig was on the advert. Upon inspection, Dr Mirage, Shadowman and Reggie were on the front. The sig looks like RJ's and the #44 is written below. The mystery was solved.
Anyway, I thought it was a neat item I'd share with y'all.
Anyone else have a piece of Valiant history signed by a major league sports athlete?
Cool stuff.

BTW, Reggie Jackson was added to that card because he was a spokesman for Upper Deck at the time. Upper Deck was the maker of the Valiant Era cards.
As I've said it before, Reggie Jackson supposedly was at that dinner in Chicago back in '93 where the wooden box sets were given away. Apparently, Mr. Jackson has (had?) a wooden box set.
