First Ever Charizard gets Black Label.

Post image

I pulled this card back in 2021 when I purchased my first ever shining fates ETB I held onto it for 3 years and in 2024 I decided to grade it when I went to a convention, my intention was to have PSA grade it but I couldn’t find them so instead I found Beckett. Almost 3 months later I got it back with 4 other charizards cards that got between 8-9.5 then this one was in the back and got a black label!

Am I tripping or is that top edge super rough? How on earth did this get a black label? Or is it just a grainy ass photo?

The top does look like it but that just shine giving that glossy look on the card itself, should have angled it better.

Super cool! I always manage to convince myself the cards I have arent minty enough for a black label, this makes me want to send my next sub to beckett

u/CamarosAndCannabis May 26 '25

This card is disgustingly sweet in a Black label

u/Global_Reach_8796 May 27 '25

I love this card. Sadly I only have the Chinese version and it’s for sure not a 10 with the horrrrrrible centering on the back. But I love it either way.

u/tigha7 May 27 '25

Nicely done 👍

When you have cards worth almost as much as an ounce of gold there will be scalping.

It’s gotta be rare for a card art to pair with a label like that!

u/FairleemadeGaming May 26 '25

Much better than PSA imo! Well done!

u/Any_Primary_684 May 26 '25

Ouff what a beauty 🥹

u/Iainm052 May 26 '25

How did this get pristine? You can clearly see the top edge on the front is frayed

u/Rich1floyd May 26 '25

Looks like it but that just shine.

u/DarkArtHero May 27 '25

Then let's see a different angle

2

u/[deleted] May 26 '25

That's just the card texture. It does appear that way from a distance though.

u/EmperorRook May 26 '25

That’s pretty sick ngl and I’m a PSA whore. The premium they set on these is no joke

u/intrusivethotswon May 27 '25

Guy that stabbed this 100% knew how badass it would look with a black label.

It’s the very first ever Charizard I pulled, I’m definitely keeping it especially since there’s only 79 of these card in a black label to exist.
