Released in the 1995 Art of Clyde Caldwell collector trading card set, this card features one of TSR's classic art images from their vintage years (from 1974 through 1991). This particular card features the cover to the 1998 TSR novel Red Sands by Paul B. Thompson and Tonya R. Carter (the full novel cover is shown for reference but it is not included in the listing- the listing is for the trading card only). The card, which measures 2.5 by 3.5 inches, is in near mint condition and features the work of Clyde Caldwell. It is signed by Jeff Easley, whose likeness served as the inspiration for the character in the upper left-hand corner. It will be shipped with the utmost care. Both the front and reverse of the card are shown in the scan. Please note- the signature is real. It is the actual, hand-signed signature of Easley. It is not a pre-printed image on the card.
