The 1999 Bowman Chrome Interstate set displays a classic scene from the player’s birth state in the background. What makes this card special is that Eddie Kennison is one of the few players in the set who is featured as playing for a team from his birth state, so the scene of downtown New Orleans not only speaks to his birthplace, but to his team as well.
As a kid of the late 80s and 90s, I am shocked that I didn’t own a 90s refractor… until now. I think I’ve avoided them because I assumed they were out of my price range. But I stumbled upon this and thought it was a great combo of player, card aesthetics, condition, and affordability. Hello, Frank.
