Here's a pack I stumbled upon in an old repack box tucked away in the corner of a local variety store chain. Do variety stores still exist? I don't know what else to call
Bi-Mart, a place where you can buy guns and jugs of wine in one quick trip.
279 - Terrence Long
256 - Jacque Jones
121 - Odalis Perez (I don't know what to make of this design, but it definite screams Fleer.)
199 - Tim Wakefield (Wakefield is still at it, just a short time away from his 45th birthday.)
143 - Mariano Rivera
492 - Diegomar Markwell / Chad Gaudin / David Sanders Trio Prospects (A trio of suck, aside from Go Go Gaudin, perhaps.)
- Dummy card
303 - Mike Cameron
388 - Royce Clayton (I hate all things Milwaukee today, no matter how old.)
80 - Ted Lilly (Another A's player who had moved on by this point.)
32 - Phillies Team Leaders (Fill your eyes... with
double vision!)

Not a bad selection of cards all things considered. I miss Fleer because the cards were simple and great for autographing. I wonder what ever happened to Diegomar Markwell.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of 1990 Fleer. I hate the fact they doubled the same image on those team leader cards.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the laziness of the multiple-use images on the Team Leader cards.
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot that Jacque (pronounced "Jock") Jones even existed. He was always one of those bubble guys on the waiver wire for Fantasy Baseball. I think Ty Wigginton or Rajai Davis have the current crowns for that category.
The T-Long card totally reminds me of this:
