Yes, a dictionary may be necessary here for some, with “obsidian” having to do with dark/black and thus appropriate for this Upper Deck Black creation starring legends Mario Lemieux and Mark Messier and their classic autographs. The penmanship appears on manufactured patch pieces and received a perfect “10” from Beckett inspectors, the latter grading the card itself 8.5 NM-MT+. The following sub grades are also on the front of the label: Centering 9.5, Corners 9, Edges 8.5 and Surface 8. Other interesting numbers are the “06/10” stamped on the front of the card and its 1-of-1 status on the Beckett Pop Report, meaning a Pop 1 with none higher (or lower). Also notable are the scratch-free holder and the little speck of something-or-other that looks to have made its way into the holder – it’s almost as if Mario is looking up at it! Talk about unique, this special card will also provide bragging rights.
