Ok, I have a #1 Promo Pikachu, and I don't think it's the one in the price guide known as "Jungle Pikachu" that was accidently printed in the Jungle set. The upper left and lower left corners have a square cut, but the upper right and the lower right have the regular "rounded" corner. It wouldn't count under square cut either because it's a promo and it's not a complete square cut. I bought it for 10 cents at a store that sold singles such as a whole bunch of promos and Original Rocket Prerelease promos (Dark Gyarados). All cards were 10 cents, so I'm sure the store was ripping themselves off, but anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows what's with this card?

Have a BS Pokemon Center exactly cut like that too...Always wondered how much it'd be worth

Hmm.
Interesting. Haven't heard of this card before. Is the blackstar logo black, or gray?

Stuff like this doesn't really have a value until you try to sell it. The price is going to depend on your ability to drum up interest in it. I have, for example, a set of 3 Professor-stamped Prof. Oaks which have the watrmark but are missing the stamp. They appear to be the only three in the world (as far as I know) but if I were to try to sell them, although rare, I would not get very much for them. Since nobody knows they exist, there is no demand. I think what you have is probably the same type of thing.

Well, the other problem with the Prof Oak cards is that the error can be reproduced by removing the stamp.
NOTE: I an NOT saying that you did that. I believe that you got them that way.
Just the it's something that can easily be done and it affects the value.

I agree with Phoenix here. Looks like you have a one of a kind printer mishap. If you put it up on eBay it probably wouldn't go for much because no one is going to be searching for "half square cut promo Pikachu."
