Nicely done. Actually, as far as I know, there is nothing to say that the Topps company can't print more 1952 Mantles. Correct me if I am wrong here. They don't because it would probably destroy their business overnight. A major part of a collectible lies in its exclusivity.

I mean, I think that they have publicly declared that they wouldn't do that, so I suppose there could be fraud here. But they do own the copyright to the card.

You can just interpolate my tongue in cheek assertion over into giveaways like Guaranteed Personal Income. Also over into the present ballooning national debt based on vapor paper. Sooner or later, when it’s too late, we’ll see that we’ve been had.
