Year: 1997

Set: Donruss Limited (Rate)

Card: #138 Vladimir Guerrero / Jim Edmonds


“ VLAD! I miss that guy. Definitely All-Name Team. ” -Howintensive

“ Vlad kind of dropped off the face of the earth real fast. Edmonds is a legit Cardinals legend despite playing only 8 of his 18 years there. I liked the concept of a 2-sided base set at the time. I suppose I still do. Something different; I gotta admire effort. ” -switzr1

“ Not a bad design. It looks like the front may be chrome? Also, where did the bat go on the back of the card? I see the nob, but no bat. It's probably straight back behind him, but it just looks funny. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I miss the Expos existing. I don't really miss those Angels' unis. ” -duaned99

“ This was an interesting concept, which I know they used in hockey as well. The cards were nice, and only 1 real parallel. ” -vrooomed

“ Interesting two-in-one concept. Horrible Angels uni, by the way. ” -jlaz10

“ He looks like he is about to get rolled over by a giant boulder like in that scene from "Raiders of the Lost Ark." ” -revnorb

“ Another case of chrome/foil not scanning nearly as nice as it looks in real life. I scanned this card 7 or 8 times and this was the best I could get on the front. ” -jackal726

“ Not a fan of the dual player, front and back cards. ” -carthage44

  I remember Hoops doing this for basketball.   Like carthage44,  I am not a fan of these either.   I mean, who's card is it anyway?  Does precedence go to the non-numbered side?   Creates a multitude of problems.   Just kidding about the problems........maybe.
