1997 Pinnacle Inside
Promotional Can Opener
Quite
possibly the 'winner' in any discussion of: "The Most Interesting/Bizarre
Marketing Gimmick In The History Of Baseball Card Collecting".
I will however give props to the 1948 & 1955 Topps Magic Photos/Hocus
Focus "Spit-On-A-Card" concept. (my thanks to Brad Wackerlin
for this disgusting tidbit of baseball card collecting history)
<lol>
Remember the introduction of '97 Pinnacle Inside - the so called
'first ever cards in a can'? A wacky concept that, thankfully,
disappeared with the fall of Pinnacle itself. But check out this
reminder of times past. Also my prime example of why I used to
despise Pinnacle Brands.
You know, I'm actually out of words. I will say this: It definitely
falls into the 'Unusual' category.
