Charlie Bucket, who is poor but has a good heart, has a "golden ticket" from the chocolate he received for his birthday, and finds Wonka's eye and becomes his successor.
The main character of Paul Skins (Pittsburgh Pirates), who received attention as a "golden ticket" in the Major League Baseball (MLB) edition, has finally been born.
USA Today reported on the 22nd (Korea time) that an 11-year-old child living in Los Angeles (LA), California, selected Skins' "1/1 Card," which was released by baseball card manufacturer Topps.
Skins is a monster pitcher who made his big league debut last year and played 133 innings in 23 games, harvesting 11 wins, 3 losses and a 1.96 ERA and receiving the MLB National League Rookie of the Year award.
Throwing a maximum speed ball of 102 miles per hour (about 164 kilometers) from his debut, he ranked third in the Cy Young Award voting even though he did not meet the stipulated innings.
Among the cards released by Topps, "1/1" means a special card that is only one in the world.
To highlight scarcity, cards are marked with "1/1" and are traded at a huge price among collectors.
The card, which was released in November last year, includes a sleeve patch and a handwritten signature for Skins' MLB debut.
The Pittsburgh club promised huge compensation to those who carried the card.
The conditions presented by the club include ▲ 2 30-year season tickets on the back of the copyright Park home plate ▲ Special meeting with the Skins ▲ 2 signed uniforms of the Skins ▲ Attendance at softball games at copyright Park ▲ Participation in batting practice and training ▲ Invitation to the team spring camp.
Gymnastics star Libby Dunn, Skinns' girlfriend and an alumnus of Louisiana State University in the U.S., offered to even give her a chance to watch the Pittsburgh game with her in the suite.
USA Today said, "It is not known whether the 11-year-old boy who picked the golden card accepted the Pittsburgh club's offer to trade."
