Pulled by Brian Sleeth at his Florida home in May, the 2025 Topps NOW Pope Leo XIV Superfractor 1/1 will sell as part of Fanatics Collect’s June Premier Auction later this month. As of Thursday, the card had reached $6,250 on 27 bids.

Officials in Dolton, Ill., called the purchase a rare opportunity. But some residents questioned whether the village, grappling with a deficit and potholes, could afford it.

Burt Odelson, Dolton’s attorney behind the deal, said that the owner agreed to sell amid threats of Dolton taking the house via eminent domain.
