1990 Fleer Baseball Rack Pack

Got a rack pack of 1990 Fleer when I was in Houston few weeks ago in their $1 bin. Was going through it when I realize "Hey I don't think I have Matt Merullo."  I need to catalog that set one of these days since that set is scattered through several boxes.

The three stickers in the pack. Since Arkansas Travelers are Mariners Double-A team I use that card for IP autograph signing next season.

The cards from Ernie Whitt side

Tom Drees career is 4 games. Howitt got in 115 games in four seasons.

"Don't call me Willie" goes back to his given name Guillermo.

On Matt Merullo side

Wally Backman in jersey other than Mets is strange.

On Flash Gordon side

 I believe this is Tony Armas sunset card

Rickey getting a lead on a card is always a good one

Matt Kinzer got in 9 MLB games. Wayne Edwards got in 62 games in three seasons.

I need get this set cataloged soon.

1990 Fleer

Greetings!

Hope everyone is enjoying their Turkey Day.  I decided to put a post up while we're waiting around for the food to be ready, the first post here on Thanksgiving since 2010.  While looking through the scan folder for a pack, I considered another Pokemon pack, but then came across this:

I'm not sure why I scanned a pack of 1990 Fleer.  There's a pack on the site already.  Maybe it's because not all the cards in the pack were scanned and I was thinking I should correct this injustice, but it's still 1990 Fleer!  Oh well, it's Turkey Day, so here's a pack from the era many consider to be a turkey.

I do know it was from one of those repacks my eldest likes to convince The Wifey to buy from time to time.  Here's what he got:

No # - Royals Sticker

#290 – Harold Baines

#364 – Tim Wallach

#118 – Kurt Stillwell

Baines as a Ranger and the Expos unis start us off.

#131 – Mike Fetters

#368 – Doug Baker

#45 – Mitch Webster

#618 – Gary Ward

There were 660 cards in the set, with subsets starting at #621.

#152 – Jack Clark

#629 – Players Of The Decade – Jose Canseco

#279 – Eric Hetzel

#44 – Jerome Walton

The kid got 2 Cubs in the pack so he was pretty happy.

#338 – B.J. Surhoff

#629 – Players Of The Decade – Jose Canseco (back)

#107 – Steve Farr

#196 – Don Aase

Yep, got 2 Cansecos, so you get to see the back.  Yay for collation!

Speaking of backs, here's a couple more:

You might as well see the back of the Aase card because I'm silly that way.

Anyway, that the pack.  Nothing thought-provoking or earth-shattering this time.  According to my spreadsheet, this is the 100th baseball card pack I posted on the site.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Be thankful for what you have and be kind to the retail workers while shopping!  Thanks for reading!

Fleer Action Stickers
Indians, Tigers, Royals, and Brewers (back when they were in the American League)

26: Damon Barryhill

35: Les Lancaster
61: Greg Litton
71: Pat Sheridan (damaged from the packaging)
123: Willie Wilson
142: Dan Petry
167: Benito Santiago

275: Wes Gardner
294: Jack Daugherty
318: Greg Brock
357: Spike Owen
This pack was so putrid I picked Spike Owen's card to scan simply because it shows the now defunct Montreal Expos logo...I miss the days of Montreal having a MLB team.
365: Rick Aguilera
540: Carlos Martinez
607: Tracy Jones

651: "Major League Prospects" Bobby Rose & Mike Hartley

571: Randy Ready

Oye, I don't think you could cherry pick sixteen worse cards... Of course, the pack claims to contain only 15 cards plus the sticker, so there is an extra card of crap...that's something I guess.
