| Here they are—the rarest of
the rare. These are the cards that will forever frustrate Magic card
collectors, as there is only one of each in existence.
The 1996 World Champion was given to Tom
Chanpheng of Australia, the winner of the 1996 World Championship. The
card is encased in Lucite and serves as the trophy for winning the
championship (along with the money). Tom played a White Weenie deck that
was supposed to be a Sleight White, but he misreported his Adarkar Wastes
as Plains.

The Shichifukujin Dragon was created to celebrate the opening of the
DCI Tournament Center in Tokyo, Japan. Like the 1996 World Champion, all
copies except for one were destroyed. The one remaining Shichifukujin
Dragon is currently encased in a display case at the DCI Center. Next time
you're in Tokyo, stop by and take a look (and send me a picture!). Here's
a map and their address:
