No - not talking about Ric or Charlotte, but instead, 1994 Flair baseball.
With the bunch today, I am giving in and adding the set to my "collecting" list. I mean, the cards are so beautiful, and the thick cardstock, and glossy, and about the only issue I have with the front is the foil and script name being harder to read than it needs to be.
The double photo front can be a problem sometimes, and doesn't always work well, but for these cards, they almost always work pperfectly.
As there were a few dupes, let's flip those and take a look at the backs...
No write ups on the back, but full stats, done so as to minimally interfere with the photo, and a team logo placed well enough out of the way also.
I don't know - just all comes together well for my liking, so, let's keep at them!
Oj...the rest of the cards from the lot today, just some basketball...
A solid bunch overall though, so I'll take it!
Updated for pulling the prior Flair cards into keepers, and with about 20% of the set done now.
I really like 90's Flair. Solid design. Thick, glossy card stock. Gold foil. Fancy packaging (in 1993 & 1994).
ReplyDeleteHigh end that felt high end - well what was high end back in the day.
DeleteI didn't like Flair when it was new. The design didn't didn't appeal to me at all, which was a good thing at the time since I wouldn't have been able to afford them even if I did like them. They've grown on me quite a bit over the last 25 years though, and now I kind of enjoy adding a few here and there to various player collections.
ReplyDeleteI can say, back when they came out - never heard or saw them. Wasn't until getting back into collecting about 7 years ago, did I find out about the set.
