   What does "real" mean in this context?  They aren't from Topps, they probably don't come with gum, but they are clearly "real". There might even be a niche market for them, and such things are easily "published" professionally. Uncle Jimby has published several stunt books, it's not inordinately expensive to get short-run professional publication on stuff like this.

  I am thinking that we should encourage him to run off a few dozen/hundred of them and sell them at the NATs. Think of the secondary market, you might have to trade 20 "Brett Buck" cards for a single "Les McDonald" card. Or open the package, find out it is a "me" card, and stick it in the spokes of your bicycle.

Look more closely to the last one, the one with Stiletto.
The photo and text are photoshopped over the old picture in quite a clumsy way.
But funny anyway. L

(http://)I hope that the CL card will be released on the market and will be the catalyst for CL's revival.

I'm not sure that the bubble gum that comes with the cards is all that good, but I liked the card....

(http://)It's hard to believe that baseball players are playing while blowing up bubble gum.
I've never seen anyone inflating bubble gum while flying it on CL.

A lot of the time they are eating sun-flower seeds and spitting the shells out.  I guess that helps reduce stress and nervousness.  Maybe some of the guys in the Top 20 at the Nats should adopt it to help them improve and maybe reach the Top 5?  Just don't be trying to spit the shells out in the middle of your overhead eights.....

Inside the capsule is a miniature CL airplane.

(http://)This is Genesis, which I drew with a pencil when I was 13 years old. The illustration was drawn in 1978, so 46 years ago.
It's the strongest card.

I can see the cards are not in English.  Are they only from Japan or another country? D>K
