I pulled this Bonds Elite Series from a pack on Christmas ‘91. Took it to the card shop down the street (7th Inning Stretch in Buffalo NY, before Dave & Adams was around) and they told me it was insanely rare and valued around $100.

Took it school to show my friends and one of the nuns at my Catholic School took it and wrapped a rubber band around it and stored it in a filing cabinet for the rest of the 91-92 school year. Gave it back on the last day of class.

Sat in a binder until 2024 when I found it again. Decided to get it slabbed by my favorite grading company (BGS4life!). Also, it reminds me of my grandma who died in 1999 bc she bought me the box of packs that Christmas.
