A $25 Ebay Gift Card Got Me Part 7 -- 3 Packs of Football Cards

Last year my sister-in-law and brother-in-law gave me a $25 Ebay gift card for Christmas.  Here's what I ended up with.  This year they were nice enough to treat me again.

This was my first purchase , second, , third fourth and fifth, and sixth.

Here's my seventh purchase.  Cost $.49shipped .  So far $23.10.


I picked up three packs of 1991 Pro Set Platinum Series 2 football cards for 49 cents.  As is the problem with a lot of cards from this era, they came of of the packs stuck together.  You can see the result on the scans.  That aside, they do feature some nice photography.  In fact, the cards list the photographer for both the front and back pictures.

In general the photos on the back are the best ones.  For a few of the cards I skipped the fronts.  So here are my favorites in no particular order.

  1. Those card backs are cool. I've seen a few other cards over the years where the backs were sometimes better than the fronts. I can't believe they have photographer's credits though. That's pretty nice.

    1. I think there were a lot of early Upper Decks that had great backs.
