I was told it was from a trading card series done in the 90's

I was wondering where I knew it from!

When I was a kid I found a vending machine full of Judge Dredd trading cards. I thought this extremely bizarre so used my pocket money to buy as many as I could. That was definitely on one of them.

That IS bizarre - where was this machine? Was it only Dredd stuff or other cards too?

It was in a large shopping Centre in an Irish town called Dun Laoghaire. The vending machine was in a really non descript place beside a newsagent at one of the exists. Was a big one too, like a sweet/drink machine but full of rows of cards.

There were other packets of cards too (I think I also bought a pack of Baywatch ones...or wait, maybe it was Barbed Wire. The main point of interest was Pamela Anderson's boobage anyway  :lol:)

But yeah, was weird as not only had I never seen a trading card vending machine before (or since!), but the fact that it had Dredd cards...weird.

One of my favourite Carlos Ezquerra images was done for that series, which means I'll probably never own a physical copy of it:

I didn't know the images on those cards were unique, originally just thought they were reproductions from the prog.

To make it even more bizarre, it was at the end of your garden.
It's a joke. I was joking.

I used to work in that shopping center. I don't miss it.

I'm not a Marmite fan, but there has been rarely an artist to grace the pages of 2000AD that I didnt appreciate.
Give me a heads up if you're selling any pages Dale!  ;)
