LOL, no idea...i guess that was the design they went with but they probably should have picked a different picture!

[MENTION=10636]jmbkb4[/MENTION], nice cards and thanks for posting!
love your 97 finest embossed refractor! here's mine, plus some recent pickups
this was tough, one per box odds in Series 1. Still looking for his Series 2 APs, which were 1:26 pack odds
1998 pacific invincible cramer's choice dark blue #d to 80:
2009 Topps TributeGold #d to 50. I just like the look of the card...

Not a piazza collector but have these of him sitting around on uncut sheets
Blue legacy NNO /100
Purple masterpiece /1 NNO stamp

I always loved Piazza. Him and Pudge (Rodriguez) are my two favorites behind the plate. Piazza has some awesome inserts from the 90's and early '00s. Being a former catcher, I really can appreciate the skill it takes to do that position and those two have it in spades! Love the collection and would love to have the 3/5 Team Six! Glad you started this thread.

pretty much downsized my collection to a handful of cards, but recently added this... 3 years never seen one and randomly came across. paid way more than i expected, but that's how those bidding wars go sometimes.
also was able to replace my former pristine 10 version 98 bowbest atomic /100 with a raw copy which came back graded 9.5 all around

Loving this thread guys! Hey, who would like to share their NO. 1 FAVORITE Mike Piazza card!?
Mine would have to be the 1993 Refractor I've got in PSA 10. I love that card and its iconic importance in both the hobby and also for being (I believe), Mike's first mainstream parallel card.
