Nice! One of my favorite players of all time.

I had to add this one to my PC. I thought I had one already but it was not in the collection.

Wanted to know what the 1999 Pacific Player's Choice cards look like... is the only difference from the base card the stamp that they carry? Anyone have a scan of their player???

Has anyone come across these?

1996 Topps Profiles normal card. I have 98 of this card

1996 Topps Profiles Very Heavy Mat Finnish. I have 2 of this card.

1996 Topps Profiles No Mat Finnish Mirror like. Only one known of Juan. This card really pops out in hand.

Also this card.
1999 Topps Chrome Early Road to the Hall Refractors Error Not a Refractor and not serial numbered. The Refractors were serial numbered to 100.

I've seen these pop up here and there, Jeter & Vlad for instance. I've always wondered if the actual serial numbered versions are in short supply (<100) if a sheet missed a serial number or refractor finish. Though late '90's Topps/Finest have pretty consistent irregularities with "refractor" designations on non-versions. I'd probably lean a base insert (w/designation). This one is on COMC:

Those are all really nice and tough to find

Nice Vladys!

I picked through a Palmeiro collection. If anyone is looking for a Starting 9, let me know, and I can put you in touch with the seller.

There has been a really good Rafey collection on eBay the last month or two. Some nice pieces if you collect him.

I'm a few days behind the game. Here's my '96 Studio Silver Press Proof.

Here is my contribution to the '99 Topps Chrome Early Road non-refractor "Refractor" discussion. I agree, these things are pretty rare to come by. I have seen other players before as well but not very often. I have no clue how these things ended up like this but you guys have some very interesting reasoning behind them. Thank you for the insight

Tougher to find than the dome-holofoil in my opinion.

 

[MansGame]

Some awesome recent pick-ups dudes... keep them coming!
