Best action shot - 1989 Upper Deck

Stingray · October 2, 2011 10:55AM

I just started buying some of this set in PSA 10 and was wondering what card do you think has the best action shot?? I like the Joel Skinner card, can't post an image of it this minute though.

This looks pretty cool, you need it?

1973 Dick Green
1953 Bowman Color Peewee Reese.

Sorry I didn't mean to derail the thread but these are my two favorite action cards.

Yes I do, I do have the Abbott card that is similiar.

Honestly, I think that one sucks. Not a fan of that style of photo in general.

The Ryan and Abbott where the first cards that came to mind when I saw the title. IMO, this set established a new standard in the card ERA with card stock and photography quality.

Fast forward 1 year and the Bo Jackson or Ryne Sandberg are hard to beat:

This was the one that I remember.

This the first card that I thought of too.

The Bert Blyleven card (the '89, not the triple exposure '90, which is pretty cool in it's own right), is kind of cool. All in all, it's going to be hard to top the Skinner, which reminds me a little of Munson's '71.

Each of their first 4-5 sets are really primo for aesthetic appeal.

I always liked this one of Benny
