Wizards of the Coast

Some Magic: The Gathering cards with alternate artwork cost more than their original versions and one alter was just sold for $1,025 on an eBay auction.

Klug Alters designed a painted alter for Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger that looks like a vintage poster for a monster movie. According to Klug Alters, the design was modeled after a promo for the 1955 movie Tarantula. Check it out:

After 48 bids had 48 bids on eBay and the item was sold for $1,025. The eBay description says: "The card is hand painted using acrylic paints and sealed with a protective acrylic spray."

Thanks to talented artists, players can acquire cards with fantastic alternate artwork you won't find booster packs and your typical game store. As far as I know, this special Ulamog is the most expensive Magic: The Gathering alter we've seen on eBay yet.

Pre-release events for Ravnica Allegiance will take place on January 19, 2019; the set will officially be released on January 25.
