# Mishra's Factory Mishra's Factory represents a pivotal moment in Magic's design history as one of the earliest manlands—lands that transform into creatures. Collectors value it primarily for its Antiquities printing, one of Magic's foundational sets from 1994. The card's mechanical innovation made it influential across decades of competitive play, which drives collector interest beyond mere age. The uncommon rarity makes it more accessible than chase rares, though condition matters significantly for older copies. Collectors typically seek it as part of a complete Antiquities set or as a piece of Magic's early competitive history. The nonfoil version represents the card's original form, making it the standard for vintage collectors prioritizing authenticity over alternative printings.
