1994 John Raper collector card

guys all i know is that way back in 1996 these could only be won through the Dynamic card club as a prize , the rest is unknown? And as for the letter of authenticity been dated 1996 for a 1994 release card this was a normal thing for Dynamic as for example if you sent in x amount of wrappers for a 1996 MVP Signature card of whom the the player you wanted , sometimes Dynamic dated these January 1997 and so on...

Totally forgot to add this - thanks for the reminder Robbie.

just something i noticed with the player checklist. i did the search for michael gordon ... it had everything accept the 2007 champs cards. might be as simple as a spelling error or something and thats why the database didnt pick it up, anyway just thought let you know.

ON topic: really nice card, first ive seen of it as well.. what do they usually fetch?
 
What i don't unstand is that my certificate is different to the one here ?
My certificate is from Dynamic Marketing 1994 Peakhurst office numbered 56 !
THIS SCAN IS NUMBERED 58 IN 1996 Dynamic Marketing North Sydney ???????
They didn't exist then it was INTREPID !
Something fishy here ????????

Dan did the certificate for this Raper card have the water mark in it as well like the one from kangaroo heroes ?

Hi Dave,
Mate I'm only going on memory but I'm pretty sure no Dynamic had a water mark just the intrepid did !
I might be wrong can anybody confirm this because I've got shit loads of intrepids with the water mark but my dynamics don't have it there all from 1994-95 years I've just noticed any certificate in 1996 onwards have the watermark :)
 
Hi DK , i just double checked the certificate that come with this 1994 Series 1 Johnny Raper signature card and it is not a reprint or fake of any kind. It is 100% authentic so only god knows what Dynamic was doing and thinking at that present time in reguards to off loading signature cards as prizes or promos? All i know is that this J Raper signature card is ultra hard to find and was from one of there comps they had running and a friend of mine was the lucky winner of this item in which i received from him at a later date. Dynamic were also giving away 1994 Series 1 collector card albums hand signed by Mal Meninga limited to 15 copies of each with certificate numbered 1 to 15 as prizes in which I have pictures of these in one of my Dynamic magazines and they even explain on how to win a folder [So i am guessing there are alot of crazy items out there from Dynamic between the years 1994 - 1996].

PS I ALSO HAVE THE COMPLETE SET OF 5 1994 SERIES 1 GOLD SIGNATURE CARDS ALL WITH CERTIFICATES FROM DYNAMIC MARKETING DATED THE 6TH OF DECEMBER 1994 [ALL SIGNED BY LINDA JOANNIDES / HENRY LAWSON DRIVE PEAKHURST].

THE COMPLETE SET OF 2 1994 SERIES 2 SIGNATURE CARDS BOTH WITH CERTIFICATES FROM DYNAMIC MARKETING DATED THE 27TH FEBURARY 1995 [BOTH SIGNED BY LINDA JOANNIDIES / HENRY LAWSON DRIVE PEAKHURST].

ATT: THIS IS WHERE IT GETS TRICKY. I HAVE ISSUE NUMBER 3 IN THE OFFICIAL DYNAMIC CARD CLUB MAGAZINE AND ON THE SECOND LAST PAGE IT SHOWS THE WINNERS FROM COMPS AND SO ON FOR THE SIGNED WALLY LEWIS PHANTOM CARDS AND SIGNED JOHNNY RAPER LEAGUE LEGENDS CARDS ALONG WITH ALL THE NAMES OF ALL THE WINNERS FOR BOTH COMPS AND THERE ARE MORE THAN 50 NAMES FOR THE JOHNNY RAPER COMP? SO WHAT HAPPENED WITH THIS COMP AS MINE IS NUMBERED 58 / 200?

1994 SERIES 1 JOHNNY RAPER SIGNATURE CARD WITH CERTIFICATE FROM INTREPID / DYNAMIC MARKETING IS DATED THE 18TH OF JANUARY 1996 [SIGNED NOW BY FLORENCE FIELD / MILLER STREET NORTH SYDNEY].

THE COMPLETE SET OF 20 1996 SERIES 2 SIGNATURE MVP CARDS ALL WITH CERTIFICATES FROM INTREPID / DYNAMIC MARKETING DATED BETWEEN THE 18TH OF SEPTEMBER 1996 TO THE 9TH OF OCTOBER 1996 [SIGNED BY FLORENCE FIELD / MILLER STREET NORTH SYDNEY].

BUT SOMETHING THEN HAPPENS AS MY COMPLETE SET OF 20 1996 SERIES 2 SIGNATURE MVP CARDS ALL WITH THE SAME NUMBER AND ONLY ONE CERTIFICATE FOR THE COMPLETE SET IS NO LONGER DYNAMIC MARKETING AND ONLY INTREPID IS DATED THE 16TH OF JANUARY 1997 [SIGNED NOW BY FLORENCE O'CONNELL MILLER STREET NORTH SYDNEY].

I cant explain how those Johnny Raper signature cards were given out but i can answer what happened here.

Im 1996 Dynamic had money problems and were on the verge of going broke. So in an attempt to escape creditors and keep trading they just started Intrepid and commenced trading from that company. I was a loophole in the laws that has sinced been closed. But that is why the certificate is issued under Intrepid for that set.
 
Thanks Owen for the info. Dynamic Marketing sounded like it was going through a tough time by the end if 1996 and therefore who really knows what was going on hehind closed doors?

The old liquidate one company and shuffle the goods to a dollar company that bought the stock for nothing. Welcome to the world where the rich get richer and the investor gets screws. No wonder Mal Meninga does not want to sign any dynamic cards
