Thanks Jeff. I will check that.

I remember some old covers (no cards) around the 90s that had holograms of sculptures on them... did you make those too?

Hello Arturo,

No, I didn't start doing the sports cards till after that.

Some of them may have been done at ABNH. I was the dot matrix operator at ABNH and I remember many DC-Marvel cards that had both DC and Marvel characters on the same card. I think we had the first dot matrix, basically a prototype by Ken Harris and these Marvel/DC cards were the first job I ran on the dot matrix. I believe I may have a few in a box somewhere. We also did a lot of the Denny's and Fleer cards that were a mixture of dot matrix, stereogram and conventional holograms. ABNH used these techniques to make wallet-sized cards with a calender in the back and a dot matrix/stereogram/conventional hologram on the front. There was a TV program called "3rd Rock from the Sun" that claimed to have aired the first ever 3d TV broadcast sometime in 96. A magazine called "Entertainment..." something (Entertainment Weekly?) had a front cover which was a hologram of the characters. I have that cover lying around somewhere; I'll see if I can dig it up on Monday (it's in the lab). There were also Spiderman comic covers with a full page hologram (also somewhere in the myriad boxes in various cupboards in the lab!)

As promised, some of my collection of spiderman comic book covers with holograms, as well as a series of 180 cards of comic book characters with 10 of them being holographic. This is but a small sample of the holographic comic book covers/characters etc stored in odd drawers all over the lab, but it would have been too time consuming to find them and take photos of all of them. I'm afraid I need to make gratings so as to get enough beer coupons to keep the local pub open. By the way, the first one is a holodisk made by Ryder Nesbitt, I believe.

Yep, thanks Dinesh. I remember I had seen the spider cover at my local comic store, along with some others...
