2003 Fleer Splendid Splinters Baseball Forum

File this one in the mystery/not quite a mystery section. I'm hopeful that someone out there will know where to dig up a sell sheet or something of the sort for this set.

I picked up a Jeff Bagwell game used bat relic from this set this week, which appears to be from the Wood Game Bat inserts - it looks like the Manny Ramirez image submitted in the database. However, the checklist has these at SN/349 - and my copy is not SN.

There does appear to be a SN Bagwell copy available online, but there aren't pictures. 

I'm wondering if the listing here is actually a serially numbered parallel of a base relic. However, I haven't found anything online to suggest that. So perhaps my copy just missed the stamper?

I welcome the help of anyone who is better at sleuthing these things than I am. Pics to come in a follow-up post in the thread.

Well, I can't get pics to show up here for some reason. Here are links to pics of the front and back at my blog site:

It's a Fleer card. So it's likely that it was a replacement card in the vault that got released into the market when Fleer went bankrupt. That would explain the missing SN.

There's two serial-numbered JB-SS on comc.com - incorrectly filed as a "Family Tree" Game Bat card:
