1997 was the year that Stadium Club went... well... even more "premium". Fewer cards per pack, thicker stock, and each player name in a raised metallic swoosh were the highlights of this year's Stadium Club. They seemed to go in more of a minimalist direction with the wrappers, however. I, for one, can appreciate a good, clean pack wrapper.

279 - Scott Servais (Servais and unknown family member exchange a super-awkward holiday embrace. Imagine a Cub in your family... ewwwww.)

314 - Alvaro Espinoza (Alvaro's choice of eyeglasses and facial hair just recently came into popularity with the hipster set. He was a little ahead of his time.)

383 - Mike Piazza Stadium Slugger (A 1:3 pack insert in a pack that only contains 5 cards? I'm guessing this probably isn't very rare. You could do a lot worse than Mike Piazza, however.)

351 - Jermaine Dye (I love the photos where you can see the baseball suspended in the air.)

205 - Ramon Martinez (Despite still being the Dodgers ace at this point, Ramon will forever be known as the Wrong Martinez... as in, the Dodgers kept the wrong Martinez.)

You can't go wrong with a play at the plate...especially one that includes a forearm shiver.
Three of those pictures look like Wrigley Field.
I wouldn't doubt if the first two cards were from the same game.
