Wow, nice cards! I didn't even know you had those! Looks like print lines were an issue with most of them.

This Ripken had them, but was the best card I ever had. I flipped it for a big profit to kickstart my return to the hobby. I've regretted selling it ever since, although it maybe had to happen.

Then I bought this Lofton - cost me an arm and a leg because of a bidding war with a board member. It does not have print lines, but I also noticed the card stock wasn't as thick as the Ripken and the coating on the mirror side wasn't as glorious.

What's the name of this set?

I think these are such a cool 90's insert - with the die-cut "pin holes." Picked up Maddux, Piazza and this guy. If anyone has any others and wants to sell, hit me up.

Hmmm... I would be very worried about buying these commonly aftermarket, back-door scrap knockoffs...Obviously this is an example if you look at the 16th Linchpin down, 6th Linchpin over you can clearly see someone has cut these out with an ordinary pair of dull kitchen scissors... Hate to break it to you, but this card is FAKE!

You got me until I counted the linchpins downward. There is no #16th . That's that.

:oops:

On another note, if you guys know already then good. If not, here's scans of what I just found out. Question is, Is there a double foil?

Don't ask me because I bought it thinking I'll have a double but when I put it next to the other one, It's the same and different at the same time... :D
