Got this in trade and didn't have to give much for it:
2003 NetPro Premier Edition #10 Anna Kournikova ERROR SP
Note on card: In 2003 NetPro issued their basic premier set to introduce tennis cards back into the hobby as a mainstream product. Initial prices were soaring and getting unbelievable prices as it was obvious that there had been a need for tennis cards within the hobby. This need was fueled by the fact that less than 100 Anna Kournikova #10 Blue Dress Rookie Cards were inserted into cases. The card was removed due to the fact that a Heinken ad was in clear view on the picture and Anna had no ties with the company. Selling for over $300.00 during its hype, this card will always be legendary in the tennis card world
From a blog in 2003: At NetPro we recently announced that the 2003 NetPro Premier Edition had an Anna Kournikova #10 Card that was pulled from the set in the very beginning stages of production. The reason the card was pulled is because it was learned by NetPro that Adidas had used that original #10 picture for an advertising campaign. Now, the pulled #10 Anna Kournikova is causing quite a frenzy among collectors in the trading card hobby. Two of these pulled cards have surfaced in on-line auctions and each sold for over $250. We have since received emails from interested collectors in search of this rare card, asking if there is a distinction between the boxes that potentially have this card and those boxes that do not. We have informed those collectors that there is no distinction between two such boxes. All we can accurately say is that we believe less than 100 of these pulled cards reached Foil Pack Boxes. With that said, this scarce card is sure to be a treasure to anyone who happens to pull one from a 2003 Premier Edition Foil Pack Box.
Last card I saw sold was for $170.00 on www.naxcom.com recently.
