Pack eight had 23 cards -- 9 baseball, 11 football and 3 basketball.
The best card was this 1995 SportFlix Artist's Proof Rickey Henderson:
"Rickey wins again"
Some cards are great for their unintended humor:
First of all he's certainly not being overlooked by this writer at Score (a relative?). But what I love best is the lukewarm quote that's attributed simply to "an observer".
This is a nice looking card and Burroughs is an interesting story. He is currently playing with the Diamondbacks after having been out of baseball since 2007.

Two basketball cards were worth noting:

ReplyDeleteIn any case, awesome card.
