I love Flair. High end cards (the first thick cards?) that feel and look high end. They had elite inserts and each pack came in a little box that was shrink wrapped. It was expensive (at the time) and I never pulled a legacy. But happy to have this Faulk, graded a BGS 9.5 gem mint. One of the best complete running backs the NFL has ever seen.

Marshall Faulk Flawless patch auto. I posted a Faulk Colts patch auto previously. From
Indianapolis, that was has more meaning to me, but Faulk is best remembered for his time on the Rams in The Greatest Show on Turf (also: what a badass nickname for a team!). He was Saqueon Barkley 1.0. Or LaDanian Tomlinson 1.5. He could run past you, through you, or around you and could catch a ton of balls.

Still one of my (maybe top 10?) favorite players in NFL history. Just a dynamic player on offense. Amazing with the Colts and even better with Kurt Warner and crew with the St. Louis Rams. Seems like forever ago they were in St. Louis! This is one of his best cards ever made. The quintessential Essential Credentials set. This card is locked in my long term PC.

Did you know - there are only 32 running backs in the NFL hall of fame. Thirty-two. That’s it. Marshal Faulk in his prime was one of the most dynamic and electric running backs in the game. Lightning fast and great receiving skills made him the ultimate weapon for Peyton Manning and Kurt Warner. He doesn’t have a lot of game used stuff out there (mostly player-worn) and this Colts patch and clear, crisp blue autograph really pop in-hand.
