The debut release of Leaf. Eye catching and simple design. It was the set of 1990. It was perfectly sandwiched between the Hobby altering 1989 Upper Deck debut and still amazing 1991 Stadium Club debut.

An excellent example of Topps “Finest” at its……finest. 😆

What. Just. Happened. 🤯

Since most reading this don’t know, Bo Bichette is my big PC guy. I’m an avid collector of his base cards, working only into cheaper parallels. All my Bichettes are <$10.

Now this dropped in the mail. 🤯 I ordered one card so I could add the base Topps Now of this to my PC. Instead I get the 1/1. Super grateful. 🙌🏻🙏🏻 Also super weirded out by this kind of heat! 🔥

I’m old. Old enough to have collected rookie cards and refractors of Valdamir Guerrero, Sr. (His dad’s cards). I don’t collect much modern baseball, but for a few packs his rookie year. Commemorative patch, but still cool and feels premium based on how think it is. Well-designed card!

The debut set of Fleer Flair. The cards were Fleer’s top tier entry in 1993. The cards look great, but they are thick. They’re too thick right? I’ve always imagined those would stretch binder pages to the limit with their super thick card stock.
