    1/1 Printing Plates.............

    Exactly what are these 1/1 printing plates? I've heard of them and I know that they sell for cheap but what exeactly is so special about them?

    Really the only thing special about them is that they are 1/1. They are one color plates used in the printing process, so they aren't "pretty". And technically, there are 3 or 4 of them (different colors), so are they really 1/1?
    I think some companies (like Topps) had to spruce them up, so they started putting autograph stickers on them.

    the main reason why I stopped building my Vilma collection. Very ugly and simply not worth paying $75.00 for. Thats the cheapest buy it now I`ve seen for those cards.

    Well, if you want a really nice printing plate/set... Check this auction out...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/2005-Bowman-Draf...QQcmdZViewItem

    I'd love to have it, but not for that much... How many players is the set anyways? 36 or so? Would be cool to have the plate set of a run of cards.
