Further to my recent post reaching out in relation to uncut sheets, I have thought about which sheet i’d like to pursue.
I’m seeking an ancient mew uncut sheet and am looking to pay $40,000 Australian Dollars for one. It was the main card i remember from my childhood (more so because i was like ‘da heck is this’).
This sheet would look magnificent with the full holo cards, so I hope someone can make my dream become a reality.
I am hopefully confident that some of these exist out there unlike e-series, gym and neo, which seem to be rarer than hens teeth.
Please get in touch should you have one or can help me in sourcing one.
@1by1collector came through with the goods and hand delivered the sheet to me now that the lockdown in Melbourne has eased. I cannot thank him enough for hooking me up with this. It is really a dream come true, and we even celebrated the transaction with a bit of champagne!
For your viewing pleasure, here are some pictures of the sheet. As you can see, one mew has double holo (under certain light). Has anyone else ever had an ancient mew card that was like this?
The photos really don’t do it justice, the holo pops so much more in person. I think i can die happy now hah.
I am conflicted, however, on whether to publicly display or keep it stored in a dark room. The glass is 99% UV resistant, so i assume it will be ok as long as its not in direct light?
It looks like it is a holo bleed, its only noticeable from certain angles.
I have looked at it quite closely and i think this would have happened on all of the ancient mew sheets printed from this facility. To me, it looks like when they were copying the Ancient Mew image across 90 times in their imaging/printing software, they accidentally either:
Pasted that ancient mew twice in the same spot, or
Missed copying a layer of that Ancient Mew image (as has happened to be before when playing around with photos in adobe photoshop/illustrator)
That particular Ancient Mew is also a bit misaligned when compared to the other 89, which further makes me think it was an error they made when compiling the images.
Quite rare to find a niche item like this so quickly after asking for it. Also even more crazy that the seller is in Australia and was able to deliver in person?? Great story here congrats to both of you.
I wish I could find rare, unique things like this at the drop of a fucking hat like you did… crazy that it worked out so quick. And that is a really cool sheet!
Props to OP for putting his money where his mouth is and giving a very strong offer. So many people try obtain these types of rare items but are not willing to pay up
