Abstract: There is disclosed herein a new form of card of the trading card type which provides a three-dimensional effect. The card includes a master sheet or card having a background picture, along with an action picture of a person printed or disposed on a substrate and which substrate is directly bonded to the surface of the card to provide a substantially continuous profile edge around the picture and which edge preferably is substantially perpendicular to the surface of the background picture. This arrangement enables a shadow to exist along this profile edge and to give an enhanced three-dimensional effect. The reverse side of the trading card preferably has detailed biographical information, detailed life sports statistics and a family picture or likeness. An alternative embodiment includes providing a profile picture of a person on a substrate and preferably with a pin on-the reverse side to enable the same to be worn on clothing.
