1995 Signature Rookies Preview #P-2

Kind of a boring card in my opinion.  Similar photo that we have seen before on other Signature Rookies cards.


The back uses cropped versions of the same photo.  The last line of the text on the back could have been formatted a bit differently to line up with the rest of the story.


This is one of the few cards I only have 1 of.  I've had this one for many years and have never seen another one since I found it.

1995 Select Certified Mirror Gold #103

Up next is the Mirror Gold version of the 1995 Select Certified card.  The only difference is the chrome color of the card front is now gold!  Gold!


On the back they have the Mirror Gold designation.

1995 Select Certified #103

Behold, the 1995 Select Certified #103!  I'm not a huge fan of this card because of the goofy face he is making but I do like the thickness and glossy aspect of it.


The back could use some work too.  No stats and another goofy picture.  It's pretty good for a candid photo but with no stats they could have made it a little bigger at least.

My First Mail Day!

I sent some Tim Wallach cards over to the fellow at http://timwallach.blogspot.com/ to help him with his quest to own every Tim Wallach card ever printed.  He was my inspiration to start this blog and he sent me a nice package with some Hawk cards not too long ago.


Thanks for the great cards!  I am still keeping my eye out for some more Wallach cards to send your way.  Sorry the picture is sideways, I couldn't figure out how to turn it the right way.  Check out his blog if you can and send some Wallach cards his way.  http://timwallach.blogspot.com/

1995 Fleer #204

1995 Fleer.  Card number 204.  Not a huge fan of this one.  Too much happening on the front.  The yellow outline around the photo is pretty cool but I think the rest of the stuff on there should be on the back of the card.


The back is not a whole lot better.  If they would have condensed the spacing on the stats and added the odd stuff from the front this would be a much better looking card I think.

1995 Flair #280

I like this card because it is a little thicker than most cards and with the shiny gold and silver on it it looks fancy!  I'm not usually a fan of sideways cards but this one looks pretty good.  They went with the tough guy photos, no smiling.  Gotta make sure he keeps up that street cred.


A full photo on the back which is pretty cool along with full minor league stats.

1995 Collector's Choice SE Gold, Silver #7

Next up we have the two parallel cards for the 1995 Collector's Choice SE.  These feature a Gold and Silver signature and SE logo on the front.  The gold version is a little tougher to find than the silver but that's ok, I think the silver one looks cooler anyways!



Nothing special on the back, same as the standard card.

Current totals: Gold = 2
