Pokémon TCG: "No-Symbol" Jungle Jolteon On Auction At Heritage

Heritage Auctions, an auction house based in Dallas, Texas that deals mostly in auction lots and listings primarily pertaining to comics, video games, trading cards, and other items of a similarly collectible nature, has put a rare "no set symbol" misprinted copy of Jolteon from the Jungle expansion set of the Pokémon Trading Card Game up for auction! This card depicting the Electric-type evolution of the ever-popular Pokémon Eevee is notable in that it lacks a set symbol, unlike other cards from Jungle that don the first set symbol in the game's history under management by Wizards of the Coast. Prospective bidders will only have up until Tuesday, April 12th, to place a bid on this electrifying Pokémon TCG card.

In early iterations of the Unlimited printing of Jungle, the entire holofoil sheet had this error, causing the cards to appear similar to cards from the first Base Set. The first-generation's three evolutions of Eevee are notable in this collection because of the popularity of that creature due to games such as Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition, wherein Eevee was your rival's starter Pokémon, and Pokémon Let's Go! Eevee, in which Eevee is the player's own starter. As a result, it's pretty safe to say you can't go wrong with a card like Jolteon! Furthermore, according to the item's auction listing on Heritage Auctions' website:

In the beginning, Eevee was able to evolve into 3 different Pokémon depending on the stone it was exposed to; these days, the evolutions have increased to 8! One of these evolutions occurred when Eevee was exposed to the Thunder Stone, and that's the Pokémon that is featured on this card — the electric-type Jolteon. What could make this card even better, you ask? Well, this particular card is known as the No Set Symbol card. The artwork is by Kagemaru Himeno.
