1985 Frito Lay Pepsi Pennant




Here's another odd-ball item that's not being counted toward the card total.  I didn't really know what to call it.  It's a decent size pennant that must have come packaged in bags of chips or 12 packs of soda.  I'd guess primarily in Cananda or even just Quebec.

The material is nearly identical to those sort of "paper" priority mail envelope/bags they have at the post office.  I'm not certain (ok I'm like 99% certain), but I think that's water damage on the left side of Wallach's hat, and not done by design.  These pop up on ebay once in awhile but they're usually way over-priced, like in the $10 range.  I can live with one water damaged copy at that price.

1992 Diet Pepsi #22
















Card Review: 4.5  Not much to like here.  Then again, what would you expect?  I ended up with a few of these thanks to a friends mother who drank an absurd amount of caffeine free diet soda.
Fun Facts: *I know nothing about this set. How it was distributed, where it was, ect.  Just bought a stack of them in a random card shop.
*Diet Pepsi no longer uses this logo, but they should.
*The air-brushing of logo's is done to cut cost.  It's cheaper to get licenses to use player names from the MLBPA than it is to get MLB logos.  A common trait amongst cereal box giveaway cards and the like.
Number of this card in my collection: 5
