Card Number 664: SPx Bound for Glory, 1996; #9
This insert card ticks a lot of boxes. Die cut, shiny, hologram. Lovely.
The scanned version of the front has a grainy TV picture effect due to the hologram.
This is one of those rare cards that references the events of the year it was released in. This set was issued in 1996, sometime after Independence Day, and references Tony's performance in the early part of the season. The cardback is let down, though, by some terrible word-stretching due to using justified text, and odd hyphenation.
Total: 664 cards
Beautiful insert. I will always have a soft spot for mid 90's SPx trading cards.
ReplyDeleteThey aren't that common over here. I like the ones I've got though.
