Happy Boxing Day. Just the one card today and I chose it because, well, I didn't have any Skybox cards left to blog, and it sort of has a box as part of the design.
Card Number 552: Upper Deck Ionix, 2000; #A11 (A-eleven)
Ionix was a weird card range that Upper Deck released at the turn of the Millennium. I have featured one of the cards from the 1999 set previously. This card came from eBay.
The box saying Gn 19 looks like a box from the Periodic Table. This gave me an idea - a Periodic Table of baseball players! Then I googled it and found it has already been done.
I also really like the font that Upper Deck used for the word 'Atomic' and it's much clearer on the back than the front. I'll give this card a bonus point for that font. (One day, when I have some free time, I will actually get round to scoring the cards in my collection.)
Total: 552 cards
