The card appealed to me for a few reasons. First, I've always liked interesting/unique/funny names, and Owen Wilson was an easy decision to target for that category. Second, the pose, background, and color all work very well together here. Third, the registration shift on the card gives it a cool ghost-like quality without having to pay the crazy prices for actual ghost image T206s (Wilson appears to have 20 fingers gripping the bat and two left ears).

Another T206 Pickup: Owen Wilson, Sweet Cap with A Registration Shift/Ghost Image, PSA 2
One of the many T206s I've picked up since moving is this fantastic Sweet Caporal 350 of Pittsburgh's Owen Wilson, slabbed a PSA 2. The price was very reasonable via old friend eBay.
