1995 was a landmark year. It was the last year before music jumped the proverbial shark (think The Spice Girls, Hanson, Aqua, The Macarena...) In 1995 I was dumped by the same girl for the second time. I also skipped school to go on a long road trip to follow a band and eventually decided that college was an extremely expensive waste of time (at the time.) One thing I did not do was watch baseball in 1995. This had almost as much to do with the above events as it did with the strike that happened the year before.Here's a pack from that fateful year. I'll buy just about anything for 50 cents.
293 - Jeff Montgomery Gold Medallion Edition (These were probably one per pack.)
312 - Jack McDowell
352 - Jose Oliva
288 - Gary Gaetti (Lots of Royals in this pack. Does anyone remember Gaetti as anything but a Twin? I wouldn't, except that he played with the Cards after this.)
321 - Bill Taylor
4 - Bob Hamelin All-Rookie Gold Medallion Edition (Hamelin followed in the footsteps of Kevin Seitzer before him and Angel Berroa after him.)
397 - 
391 - Greg Swindell
310 - Jim Leyritz
432 - John Mabry (Nice, a Cardinal!)
368 - Jack Morris (A pretty good pitcher in his day. This card says he signed with the Reds as a free agent, but he'd never pitch again in the majors after Cleveland. 254 career wins!)
426 - Zane Smith
