Description: Offered here is one of the absolute rarest cards of the 1970's, a 1977 Hostess Unissued Proof card of Dave Parker card #119 on a full panel, including card numbers 118 and 120. Dave Parker was never issued on a panel or box for distribution. This card is extremely rare. Dave Parker was supposed to be the player featured on card #119, but they made a last minute switch and used Jerry Reuss instead, whom was originally made as a reserve and numbered 159(which was never released to be included in the set). As such, the Dave Parker card never made it onto a box or panel for distribution in the stores and this panel is a hole in everybody's 1977 Hostess set. Instead, all the Hostess cards #119 in the 1977 set you see are of Jerry Reuss. The 1977 Hostess set consisted of 150 cards, but on a few production sheets they made some extra cards to be possible replacements for another card in the set or to make a larger set. This card was never issued to the public. Very few were made and fewer survived. This is a final production card with a printed back. This is a very rare find. I have sold many Hostess cards, panels, sets, sheets, complete boxes and Hostess store display items through the last few years here on Ebay with many satisfied customers. Thank you to all who have bought from me in the past and I hope these rare treasures being offered today find a good home.
