1994 Flair Series 2

 

Way back in 2010, I posted a pack of 1994 Flair Series 1 here. Now that it's 2024 (!), let's check out a pack from Series 2 in what is now a thirty year old pack of baseball cards.


309 - Greg Vaughn - These cards were still the fanciest looking cards of the day.


274 - J.T. Snow - The card backs match the front design well, and feature a third distinct full color player photo.


357 - John Smoltz - It's the first Hall of Famer of the pack.


291 - Danny Bautista - Bautista's son is a minor leaguer in the A's system.


392 - Shane Reynolds - Reynolds spent most of his career with the Astros, netting him a lone All-Star nod in 2000.


383 - Kurt Miller - I was going to complain about the '90s-ness of the Astros card above, but then just look at this thing.


314 - Chuck Knoblauch - You could remember Knoblauch for being one of the prime examples of "the yips" or you could also remember him for having one of the earliest examples of a buyback autograph inserted into baseball card packs.


410 - David Segui


258 - Lee Smith - Here's our second HOFer of the pack.


7 - Kirby Puckett Hot Glove - The last card of the pack is a die-cut insert card and third Hall of Famer.

Nice. Cutting edge stuff, at the time.

I opened a pack ... er, box of this on the blog like 10 years ago. It came out of a repack box. I pulled an A-Rod rookie card.

Big fan of 1994 Flair. Great looking product... both base and inserts.
