So the other day I was looking through the Nickel Tour and came across this card. I thought to myself, “I have seen a gazillion of the other Upjohn cards, how come I never see this one? Is it rare, or what?”
Well, the answer was pretty simple. Take a close look at the card. There is no mention 
of Disneyland on this card. So, whenever someone wants to put this on eBay they don’t mention Disneyland unless they happen to have a specific knowledge of the Nickel Tour and the sister cards that relate to this one.
So, why is this card in the Nickel Tour, anyway? Well, along with the other Upjohn cards, it must have been available at the park as a free giveaway. The other cards are all Disneyland specific, and show pictures of the pharmacy on Main Street. But this factory photo was just that…a factory photo….that is, not something at Disneyland.
So…mystery solved. If you want to find this card on eBay, just type in “Upjohn building” or something like that in the eBay search and you will find it. I paid something like $3 for this card…which is probably more than I should have paid…there were several auctions to choose from.
Until next time…
now the card that is rare is the same card but with the number A-2109-1 i have only seen one in all my years collecting it is the exact same card but it has a -1 on the end of the number. go figure huh!!
I’ll keep my eye out for that one. Truble is so few people show the back of the card in their listings. Let me know if you find it though…
