When he was with Seattle and hitting 30+ HR's per year for a couple of seasons I used to call him the "midget on steroids". He was definitely juicing with something during those years with the Mariners. Not sure if it was steroids, but he looked like a. 5'7" Oompah Loompah.

Looks a bit like a poster. The mat finish was the best thing about these cards.

Even though blurred I like the background much better than a artificial, crazy colored design.

I like the way that the tiffany pops on this card compared to the base
