I need helping find last card in PC - Finder's Fee (2001 card)

[uw91]

What can I say, I'm a bit desperate. I have nowhere else to turn except the searching powers of a card community. 1 card stands in my PC that has eluded me for this entire time. Or, shall I say, 1 player stands in my way.

I have nearly all of the Huskies from 1990 on, in their pro RC wearing UW gear, an auto, or just their lone RC. I have searched creation and can't find either of these 2 remaining. I only need 1.

He's (was) a Steeler;
2001 Playoff Honors Honor Roll Autographs #108 J.Fiala 01PlaUH/30
2001 Playoff Unsung Heroes Banquet #UH24 John Fiala

I want the Auto, as that meets the true requirements for my PC, but with only 30 made and most of those being redemptions... I'm not sure they are around.

If you can find this card, just find it, and it leads to me buying it.... $20 to you for the auto and $10 for the insert. If you own it, I'll buy/trade for it and give you the cash. Nice, cold, hard Paypal. I'll even toss in some of your favorite players if shipping is needed.

This may be a quick $10/20 for you, as you may have it in a shoebox, but if this Finder's Fee is too cheap, I'm sorry... I'm just asking for help. I'll post photos of what I believe the designs look like, since I've never seen the card(s).

The Auto should be of the same card /30, if that helps. Finding this card will allow me to start on my display project.

Thank you, for any help! Please feel free to respond here or PM me if you have a lead.

i have NEVER seen that card - and that's saying something - i troll for #rd cards under 100 ...

If it makes you feel better, in 2003 Donruss says it released an Ike Hilliard auto card #/25 (Prestige game day);
and one has never surfaced since day one ... i've had it locked in my eBAY "email me if you see it" searches.

Donruss might not have made it.

When you say 'that' card, you mean the Fiala and not the Dilfer, right? haha

Someone, somewhere, must know the truth. Thank you for the heads up and the thoughts.

So, I just found out that the 'Unsung Heroes' set was only given out at the 'Unsung Heroes' banquet in 2001. Playoff then had 30 of those cards signed and placed in a 'buyback' set.

Well, I'm screwed. Is there an official ruling on PCs when the card exists, but most likely doesn't exist? haha

If you don't have the card then you're not a true collector. You should be ashamed.

And if you don't have the complete set of National Treasure Lockers with full Titan's logo.... you're not a true collector.

You, me, parking lot at Card Exchange.... NOW!!!!



In all seriousness, I'm hosed. They did the buyback autos, putting out 30 autos in the Playoff breaks, but I'd need to find someone with a set of 2001 Unsung Heroes and hope they break it or have broken it. 30 Autos of a common player in 2001, this sucks. haha
