I have no idea what it is worth but that's clearly a bit over-the-top.
The funny part is after getting that price, he still wants to charge $25 for shipping and handling (and it probably will arrive in a PWE).
 
200 ever made, and one of 9 graded by psa. it would be an intresting find to get yes but its way over priced. and btw hes a really nice guy and his son even with his bad rep was a really nice guy too. met them both when i was a guard at camp david. well if youcan cal it meeting him. they always treated us really good.
 
While we are on the subject of presidential baseball cards, I can think of a few I wouldn't pay a dime for either.
 
If I had one I would ask 50 bucks for it,that seems a fair price in my opinion,.

If you see that card for 50.00 pick it up for me and I will buy it from you. Lets not get crazy here. They were given out at a Yale dinner for the President. Some were given to high ranking Topps employees and a "few" made it into packs. How many packs of 1990 Topps were made? This card is not worth 9500.00 in my opinion but to think that they are all just floating around out there is a little gullible.Everyone knows these cards and others like them are really rare. Has anyone ever seen one at a show? How about the 1984 Topps Darryl Palmer card from the movie The Slugger's Wife? Or those Golden Spikes Award cards of Alex Fernandez or Mike Kelly or Phil Nevin? There was also a Joe Garagiola card made in 1991. These cards are probably not worth 1000's of dollars but to say that they are just floating around is a liitle bit untrue.

You don't have to look too far, how much does the 1990 Topps Frank Thomas No Name Error go for?

By the way, I have a Bush fake. The front is pasted onto a regular 1990 card.
 
funny how not one offer has been given...go make an offer on it...who knows, what if the seller preset the price to sell at $300? you'll never know if you don't try.
 
I used to collect stuff like that when I could find it. Sometimes the cards are cheap, but unique, other times they are very difficult to find. The 1969 Bowie Kuhn Topps card is another example of something you wouldn't think would be so expensive, but try to find them. I have wanted one since I bought my first Almanac...

Here are a few of my unique cards...

Guess I didn't have as many scanned as I thought.

This is kind of what I am saying. Does anyone know of anyone who ever pulled the Bush card from a pack? Maybe some were inserted and maybe some were not. But I would be willing to bet that there are still unopened packs of 1990 Topps cards out there. But I have never seen the actual Bush card myself. Does anyone think that the cards were inserted in the packs?
