93-94 Fleer Excel League Leaders #9

Next on the docket is the 93-94 Fleer Excel League Leader, card number 9.  Although this is a lovely photo it would have been nice if they didn't reuse the photo from the 1993 Fleer ProCards card.  They did zoom in a little bit which is a nice touch.


What lacks on the front the back makes up for. A nice little story about his season and why he was considered to be a league leader for the season.

Running total for this card, 22.

93-94 Fleer Excel #95

In our third installment we take a look at the 93-94 Fleer Excel card # 95.  This is one of my favorite photos on any of LaTroy's cards.  Not sure if he was going for the intimidating tough guy look or if the photographer just caught him in between poses.  Either way, I like it!


The back of the card is just as nice as the front.  A large photo, team logo, and some stats.  All it needs is some fun facts and this would be perfect!  For the longest time I thought it was a necklace he was wearing that said 'Hawk", but after looking closer at it just days ago I realized it is on his shirt.  The other thing I noticed was that to the left of the stat box you can see he is holding up right hand.  I wonder if he was holding something or pointing or...?  I'd love to see the original photo sometime and see what it is.
