Eye for an Eye


I m not going to call this one a highlight, but I couldn't resist using this as the first picture in the post today. I remember when this was a big deal and seeing her (Kim Goodman) on some of the talk shows for being the biggest eye ball popper - being the furthest obtruding from the socket. Fun stuff!

Highlights:

Even in hand, these O Pee Chee cards are SO dark that only by flipping it over to read the "normal" back, could I tell you it was Chad Kilger. As for the 1992 Triple Play Robbie, not the first in my collection, but each time I see it, I do wonder if having the shot from the other side would be a bit better, at least getting his face instead of his backside.

The rest
Keepers:

Decent keepers - the 1991 card is O Pee Chee with a nice bright back. Otherwise some nice 2007 Heritage.

Traders:



Unfortunately a couple more gummed O Pee Chee cards from 1990-91, but on the good side, a couple more nice McD cards.
