You are at the local card shop... The only packs they have available are searched 1993 select rookie and traded where no inserts are left...

You rip into a pack... If you could pick any ten cards to be in your pack what would they be?




BEST ANSWER will WIN THIS PACK!! And maybe, just maybe we can make your dreams turn into reality

Edit: this pack is not search so your dreams could be ruined and you might actually pull an insert. They were fairly easy to pull at 1:2908 packs.

    Roger, I think this contest is not getting much play because it requires too much thinking. Maybe you should change the title to "What beer am I drinking" or "What kind of toilet do you prefer" ( elongated or standard) . I know I would play.

    Sorry Roger, I don't know anything about early nineties cards. I remember having some Hot Rookie cards of Juan Gone and Frank Thomas and feeling certain that they would be worth a lot one day.image

    Does no one else remember that Kirk Rueter was called up by the Expos in mid 1993 and went 8-0? His card carried this set when it came out and was going for $8-$10. Kevin Stocker was also about a $5 card.

    Incidentally, there was no Piazza or Jeter in the set.

    No, the Select Rookie Traded is blue.

    Sometimes I think Roger and I were the only people on these boards that collected in the 90s. No wonder the modern card market collapsed around '99 and all those companies went out of business.
  • Before reading too far forward... please read anything in the following statement that is in quotes (ie "blah") using a voice like that of a commercial for a crappy swap meet or that of a monster truck rally. Your choice image

    I only got Rickey Henderson from my list BUT other highlights include such greats as "Blas Minor". And who could forget the legendary "Kevin Roberson". And a surprise appearance by "random 1992 Topps footballs non-stars". Followed by the "M's logo from 1987 Fleer stickers"!!!!!!!!

    Just playing around! Thanks for the packs! Always nice to have something to rip!

    I was collecting at that time. This was when I was actually doing shows and such.
