I have picrel that's on really thick, really glossy card, I definitely ended up with it from summer camp shenanigans in the 90s and I didn't know it was a legit thing until I was dusting off my collection a few weeks ago and looked into it.
Also going through my collection I have a decent amount of Italian base/fossil cards. Always wild to me how that mustve happened since this was before online shopping was a real big thing just wondering how far those cards mustve traveled to me.
