The card features a unique, child-like hand-drawn illustration by Keita Takahashi set within a gold-bordered card. The background is brightly colored with a sky-blue and green nature scene. The text is all in Japanese, and the card has the unique look typical of the Vending Series, with a simple, no-holographic design and the set\/card number clearly printed in the lower right corner (No.143). The card has no border on the bottom and right edges, a common feature of Vending cards. This card is slabbed and graded PSA GEM MT 10, indicating a pristine, flawless condition with sharp corners, clean surface, and centering. The Vending promos were distributed via vending machine sheets in Japan, making them historically notable due to their distribution method and limited Western availability. The art and set distinguish it from the regular Japanese and English base sets—this is a prized collector piece among vintage Pokémon collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCard Details:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e SNORLAX\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCard Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1998 POKEMON JAPANESE VENDING\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 143\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e SERIES 1\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CardsHQ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46645064073379,"sku":"83318191","price":1850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/7623\/0563\/files\/83318191-FRONT.jpg?v=1765912123","url":"https:\/\/cardshq.com\/products\/snorlax-1998-pokemon-japanese-vending-143-series-1-psa-gem-mt-10-83318191","provider":"CardsHQ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
