A little touch on the corners, and centering isn't 100% but thats a pretty clean card

This thread is full of awesomeness from the OP. So he knows nothing about baseball cards but says everyone says that Big Unit should say Marlboro on it. This obviously isn't his first time asking people about these.

If you are in Minneapolis, there are several collectors in the Twin Cities (I'm in Wisconsin, so I'm not so close) that may be able to meet up w/you and help determine if you have anything good. Check us out on the Twins collectors thread.

I literally just looked up that randy Johnson card on google right after that guy said it could have an error thought it would be cool to see a messed up card

Yep holographic cards, just like the Pokemon kind.

 

[golden763]

Weird and cartoon cards?

 

[golden763]

A lot of these holograph cards are kinda warping is that normal

 

[golden763]

And I sure as hell didn't know they made puzzles

Actually those are the ones worth the most. There was a printing process error in the card stock and the ones that warp are the ones that made it through. Those are the really scarce ones. After they caught the error they fixed the issue and the ones after do not warp.

Notice how the bottom part of your stack isn't that warped? Those are the couple from after catching the error.. all of the really warped ones are pre error fix. Man that is a nice stack. quite a few bucks you are looking at there.

Don't pay any mind to alexs64, he's being a bit of a smart ass...

Alex is giving you a hard time. Those cards were called sportflics and the idea was to get 2 or more different card fronts onto the same card. Notice if you move it left to right there should be different poses on the cards at different angles. Bending can happen with time, and those sportflics were definitely prone to that. Alot can depend on how they were stored.

As to the Dinosaur card, no idea whatsoever
