Random Card of the Day |
Wednesday, January 13, 2021Set: 1996 Ultra - Gold Medallion (Rate) “ These Gold Medallions are so cool in hand but nearly impossible to get a good scan out of. ” -Billy Kingsley
2
“ This guy’s actually my old high school’s baseball coach. Very nice guy. ” -CardsThatTimeForgot
7
“ when i first saw the back of the card it looks like a daddy allen watson holding a baby allen watson ” -parsley24
5
“ I like Fleer Ultra (I don't like calling it just "Ultra"). I like some gold variants. I do not like these "Gold Medallion" variants. Not a fan of the all foil thing. Back with two different pictures from from is OK but looks a bit wasteful since there is only one line of stats, OH and the career stats to that point. ” -captkirk42
“ There's a lot going on. Too much text that blends into the background image. I like that there are multiple different images though. ” -jackal726
“ the year Fleer Ultra "gold medallion" was truly gold ” -abide
“ Pretty boring . . . nice try to showcase photos of the player, so if that's what you prefer, it is well-done in that aspect . . .
Beyond that, there's nothing . . . ” -georgecf
“ Nice strong card. Nice set, as well. Love how they get the embossing on the card without really disturbing the image.. ” -Camstone
“ Very cool medallion card of a guy I never heard of. ” -muskie027

Tuesday, January 12, 2021Set: 1999 SP Signature Edition (Rate) “ Signature edition, yet no signature in sight. Also, looks like someone just discovered the shape feature in Photoshop and went overboard ” -IfbBirdsCards
3
“ "Whoa" -- Joey Lawrence
I was really hoping for a 1987 junior hockey league card today, but a professional MLB card will do. Good looking card. Surviving the over graphic design 90s with out being too overbearing. ” -parsley24
4
“ I love the autos in this set, but never paid any attention to the base cards. ” -abide
2
“ "Whoa!"
- Joey Lawrence ” -jackal726
1
“ Woah! OH wait Wrong Joey Lawrence. ” -captkirk42
3
“ Having the words SP and Signature on the card without actually being either is a bit of a letdown... ” -Soarin22
1
“ Has a cool puzzle piece look to it. ” -muskie027

Sunday, January 10, 2021Set: 2007 MultiAd Oklahoma RedHawks (Rate) “ Same photo used 3 times? Fail! ” -rmpaq5
6
“ Nice Minor League card. First for 2021 there will probably be at least 100 more throughout the year. Don't worry I'm not going to track that someone else can if they want. ” -captkirk42
“ I like this design very much, except for multiple usage of the same image. But the coloring, the layout, the content...very, very nice. ” -kents_stuff

Friday, January 8, 2021Set: 2019 Topps Heritage (Rate) Card: #113 Lance McCullers Jr. “ Didn't one of these just come up? ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Wish the comic comments on the back would come back without a "flashback" release. ” -rmpaq5
2
“ Heritage not vintage. OH well. Nice looking card anyway ” -captkirk42
1
“ The second time I decided to delve into Heritage and I wasn't disappointed. It's expensive to collect, but very fun and nice cards. Reminds me of collecting as a kid as opposed to modern day cause the look and feel, and yes, smell, of the cards is awesome! ” -muskie027
3
“ Nice looking card, front and back ” -NJDevils
“ Hard to say anything positive about an Astros card. ” -switzr1
1
“ ahh a card from the set that haunts me ” -crashdavis28
1
“ I'm tired of seeing Topps use old designs and putting current players on them . . . This is a 1970 Topps, so I only want to see 1970 players on it, like it was when I was ten years old . . .
Come up with new designs, instead of "just phoning it in" . . . ” -georgecf
“ one of the better design choices for Heritage in recent years. ” -DarkSide830

Thursday, January 7, 2021Set: 2014 Topps - Future Stars That Never Were Relics (Rate) “ Very nice card...not familiar enough with the uniform to know if this is a patch or a pinstripe, but it's great either way, and being SN 1 of something makes it even better. ” -Billy Kingsley
2
“ As a collector of serial number 1 cards, I’m a fan of this one. ” -Dave Sosidka
3
“ Odd name for a set. ” -muskie027
3
“ There is way too much going on with this card. ” -Corky
2
“ I'm sorry, but I guess I don't understand the premise here. I think Longoria was a star, so why "never were". The card says he played in 2008, so maybe he just didn't have a Topps card that year? I don't know. Anyways....
I like the card design. I think the stripe through the star, placed precisely with the edge at the star's centerline, is strikingly beautiful. Perhaps a future Astros design should consider that concept. ” -kents_stuff
“ I love numbered stuff and to get the #1 is always cool! I like it! ” -bkklaos
“ The name of this set is very misleading. Makes it seem like Longo was never a star. This is an interesting looking design though. Pretty cool. ” -IfbBirdsCards
“ OK. I'm not sure I get the concept of this. Are they meaning that these stars never had a "future stars" card their rookie card year? Very odd title for an insert set, or more accurately a series of sub sets: base, gold variant (the good style were the border is gold not the kind where the gold variant is foil lettering) autograph, relic, relic w/autograph ” -captkirk42
1
“ This is an odd card, kinda looks like an ID badge. Looks "dated" for it's time. Not really sure how I feel about it's collector status for my collection. ” -Camstone
“ So he never became a star? I'm real confused by this card. ” -switzr1

Wednesday, January 6, 2021Set: 1993 Classic Best Palm Springs Angels (Rate) “ Is he related to the current McCaffrey NFL family? ” -muskie027
“ Nothing wows me about this card, but nothing really puts me off, either. Typical MiLB for the day. I guess my complaint would be the staged photo in front of empty bleachers. But it is offset by the team logo watermark on the back and good color throughout. ” -kents_stuff
“ Not a bad design by classic. The logos are not overbearing and it is easy on the eyes.
” -parsley24

“ Nice Minor League card. ” -captkirk42
“ This guy looks like he REALLY needed this baseball career to work out. ” -jackal726

Tuesday, January 5, 2021Set: 1989-90 ProCards AHL (Rate) “ Great card! I love that the world of hockey is fully represented on cards....not just the top level (and only half of that) in the NBA like I'm used to. ” -Billy Kingsley
2
“ About as basic as it comes, but not all that bad. ” -muskie027
“ Two words: THE BUS! ” -hafengr
2
“ I like minor hockey league cards, this being no exception. ” -Brendan Barrick
“ The ProCards minor league hockey sets are always fun to look at because you can find cards of people who went on to become well known coaches or GMs. Not the case here, but still a great looking effort. The old Hershey Bears logo on the back of the card is one of my favorites, looks like a big skating Teddy Bear. ” -Gunny
“ "Forget the lights...let's just get this shoot over with." Tookey was an absolute scoring legend in the AHL. ” -wjhipwell
“ Nice ProCards Hockey? I don't think I had seen any of these before. Nice. ” -captkirk42
“ I like it ” -switzr1
“ Minor league superstar Tim Tookey. Got a few chances at the NHL level with a few different franchises but was never able to stick. Never got a NHL card. ” -Blargh

Monday, January 4, 2021Set: 1993 American Sports Monthly (unlicensed) (Rate) “ Loved the Fab 5. Timeouts are precious. Use them wisely. Love listening to Jalen Rose. ” -ToppsrBest
“ I loathe college cards... because of the NCAA. Their rules are draconian and racist. ” -Billy Kingsley
3
“ Time Out !!! ” -abide
1
“ First, I'd like to thank Ed Martin for making this card possible...
Webber (and Rose, Traylor, and others from that Fab Five team) were great players, and it's a shame that so many of them got involved in that mess and had their images tarnished forever. But the bigger shame was that guys like Martin existed in the game, and unfortunately still do. ” -kents_stuff
“ Should be #1 draft pick. ” -parsley24
“ Yes, yes. I know. The timeout. But, being a super Michigan fan, totally forgive him.
19 years old at the time. On the biggest stage. Makes a bonehead mistake.
One of the all time greats. Legit #1 pick. HOF--probably. Robbed by dirty refs (really) of a chance to be in the NBA finals.
Would have cleared his name in college scandal (not much of a scandal--see ESPN documentary) if he had admitted taking the money. ” -cjjt
“ I laughed at "Should be #1 Draft Pick". ” -switzr1
“ Leave it to Billy to contribute to a fun, obscure set! I love it! ” -bkklaos
“ This could be an awesome design for a major release with a few minor tweaks. ” -muskie027
“ I have come across some American Sports Monthly cards I used to think they were unlicensed broder cards in some ways I still do. Apparently they were issued in the American Sports Monthly magazine. ” -captkirk42
“ Released a rap album under the name "C. Webb" and dated Tyra Banks. He has lead a full life! ” -UKboogie
“ Sweet ! ” -BOBSCARDZ
“ Love the Fab Five. Love to hear Jalen Rose talk sports. Love the Card. ” -ToppsrBest
