Nice pic of the swap card. It's the only one I could find. Do you have a pic of the other side? I guess you have to do one side at at a time to avoid removing it from the staple.
Sorry, firesurfer - the pic of the card is from an eBay listing I kept on file. Most of the pics of cards and posters on my blog are from my collection, but alas my copy of The Silver Surfer #1 does not have the card. However, when I do manage to get a complete copy, I'll put up fresh scans for you.
Hi guys. Sorry, bit late to this thread. My copy does still have the swap card attached. Let me know if you still want a photo.
