An extraordinary rarity within the 1955 Esskay issue identified as 1955 by its gray back. The PR 1 grade from PSA while accurate neglects the eye appeal of the card; an ungraded example with far lesser eye appeal sold for $9 500 nearly ten years ago. While we expect the market for rare regional hot dog cards has calmed down since the card is sure to generate interest among completists and collectors of rarities alike. A fresh find from the Ted Patterson collection.
