BEHOLD!!!!!
In case I wasn't the last person on Earth to see this, I give you, The Virgin Mary in Grilled Cheese! Really! You should hurry though, because THIS IS NOT A HOAX and there are only 4 days left. Plus it's already up to almost $70,000.
Among it's many selling points is that it's 10 years old, so given the lack of mold it can also be numbered among The Incorruptibles.
All kidding aside, The Incorruptibles are very interesting, and if you have a minute you should surf around and check it out a little. I've always really found them fascinating...
Editing to Add: After much research, we believe the grilled cheese may not represent Mary at all. It appears to be Bette Davis, who having died in 1989 was available for grilled cheese engagements at the time this was produced. The ultimate irony for us old time movie fans, is that now we can pretend the grilled cheese sandwich is talking to us and saying, "You couldn't sell me on Ebay if I wasn't in this glass box!" And then we can say, "But cha AAH, Bette! Ya AAH in that box!" a la What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? Or maybe that's just me...
