Need help identifying a card!! Player collectors??

[CAN'T FLY]

Hey guys, need a little help.

I got this card a while back and don't remember what its from, im trying to work out where it goes in the pc but cant find it in the Beckett.

It is a 92/93 Topps Shaq rookie card, its hand numbered on the back and has a stamp(no this is not an excuse to put a zoomed pic of Shaqs crutch on a thread) that says Topps Original- cant really see it on scan.











Can anyone help with what set this was released in or event/card show it was given out at or did I fall for a scam that didn't cost me much????

Thanks guys.

Dave

Never heard or seen anything like it....

There was a topps release where they included hand numbered buy backs. I believe this was one of them!

Thanks Matt, any idea what year?

Unless it's 2003-04 Bowman? They had the originals inserted in them also.

Very nice rare piece for a Shaq collector!

Thanks so much for the help guys!!!

Of course I would be looking over every topps year/set and it would be in Bowman.

I was pretty darn close. Knew it was around then.
