60. The ...So I am a little bit late in commenting…<br /><br />60. The 95 Stadium Club Nomo looks like a mannequin throwing a ball. That overhead shot from the last 100 best beats it all to pieces.<br /><br />59. I didn’t know why they called Kemp Bison so I looked it up on Wikipedia just now. Now that I know why I think it is a stupid nickname. <br /><br />58. I didn’t pay any attention to baseball until 1986 so I don’t remember Garvey as a player. For that reason this card is just a picture of a guy in a batting stance. Meh. (You can expect something Garveyish in your mailbox soon)<br /><br />57. Looks allot like a certain Triple Crown winners RC.<br /><br />56. How come nobody sends me a vintage card of an all time great out of the blue? Must have something to do with being able to write really good and posting more than every couple months…<br /><br />55. 2008 Stadium Club is way under rated. There are so many great photos in it. Too bad the screwed up all the numbers/ parallels and made it expensive.<br /><br />54. I don’t know how I never saw this card. I thought I had seen every single 89 Donruss card there was. Orel always looks so young in his early cards. He was 30 in 1989 but his card makes him look 16.<br /><br />53. My house wasn’t a baseball house. We didn’t watch lots of baseball games as a kid. I did however see Gibson’s walk off. I’ll never know why it was on my tv because my dad hates baseball but it was.<br /><br />52. What I notice is the horribly shaped hats. Guerrero’s looks extra tall and Law’s looks extra wide. Simpson looks like he may be swallowed by his.<br /><br />51. A manager standing next to the bat rack does make for a pretty good card. Did anyone else notice those two bats with no knob on the ends? Wonder how many of those ended up in the stands?<br />AdamEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107347958456472504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-14193568310263691372012-11-12T10:52:09.882-05:002012-11-12T10:52:09.882-05:00I've found this card on UK eBay: http://www.eb...I've found this card on UK eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hideo-Nomo-Red-Sox-2002-UD-Authentics-Retro-Star-Rookie-Jerseys-Card-/250936837229?pt=Trading_Cards&hash=item3a6d00446d<br /><br />I know he's with RedSox but you're the one to know if that's something 'wrong' with the card.<br /><br />Cannot wait to see what you'll bring for the final 50 countdown.Ana Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920996724958583647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-39619017106052257112012-11-12T01:23:34.686-05:002012-11-12T01:23:34.686-05:0055 would seem a little low for a quality play at t...55 would seem a little low for a quality play at the plate card, but it IS Russell Martin.

This is a really hard group to settle on. I'd probably go with the Snider because how could you not love this card? Classy card of a class guy. But it was really hard not to take the Hondo rookie. That '60 rookie subset really takes me back to my earliest card collecting days. I think that subset was the first one I 'chased'. I loved them.
