My vintage card of the week: The 1983 Fleer Tony Gwynn rookie card. I appreciate all three of Tony’s rookie cards, but something about the Fleer just makes it stand out to me. I love the gray borders and the yellow and brown jersey and hat, and the prominent old-school Padres logo just makes the card pop. Gwynn was the best pure hitter of my baseball generation, and I still think he would’ve hit .400 in 1994 if the strike hadn’t robbed him of the opportunity.
