While I've collected Galarraga for awhile now, I cannot consider myself an expert on his earlier stuff. Anyone have any additional information on this card/set?

This was today's mailday. It was kind of a spur of the moment purchase, but it was one of those things that I may never see again. Not too many people think to list Galarraga cards.
I've always been partial to Stadium Club and Ultra. Loved the chase for the 1st day issued and I believe Ultra was the first set to offer 1 insert per pack back in the day....but I may be wrong.
Probably one or two more gems that I'll discover as I begin the big sell off. However, it's just Thomas cards. I probably picked the Super Scripts up in 2000 or 2001 and ignored the 90s revival that's been going on.
I believe my journey as a Thomas collector is coming to an end. I realize that I no longer have the time or the same passion I once had for my collection. I've only posted a few times here, but have kept a close eye on this thread. It has helped me immensely and has given me the chance to see...
this may be a silly question, but do you still have the empty box? I collect Frank Thomas and think it would be a neat addition to my collection if we can work out something.
Picked up some new stuff for the Thomas collection, thought I'd share:
#'d to 16. Scan doesn't do it justice, the case is pretty scratched
#'d to 10. The Leather insert, pretty cool card
Possibly my new favorite card, or at least a close second to the 90 Leaf
long time reader of this thread, first time question poster :) I collect an obscure player and the opportunity to acquire a 1999 EX Essential Credentials has arisen. I know that BV is silly on these older cards, but I was wondering what ppl thought the going rate could be?
probably a stupid question, but I need help with this card.
19?? Topps Frank Thomas PP6
It's seems like a Pre-production card, but it has his 1994 stats on the back and a copyright of 1996. So is it a 1995 topps pre-production? Also the photo on the front is the exact photo used on his 1995...
oh happy day, I can finally watch Sunday night baseball without the mute on. I'll miss Miller, but Morgan hurt my head. He was the John Madden of his time.
Would love to see Chip Carey as a replacement.
Call me ignorant, but I did not know Lee's stuff was that hot. Granted he could be the best pitcher in baseball at the moment, but I wonder what that card went for when he labored for part of the 07 season before being sent to triple A. Guess I should have stocked up...living in Ohio you can...
I have two main Player Collections:
Frank Thomas: Probably the ultimate that I own would be this:

Not the most expensive auto that I own, but it's just a great set and awesome looking card.
The Ulimate that I want to own would be any...
not sure if this is legit or not:

Thomas auto looks okay, definitely from the era where he would have taken the time to sign his name that clearly, but not sure about the Griffey. I've never really looked at his autos before. Definitely...
Thought I would show off my most unique item, a wood burned plaque. Wish I could take credit for this masterpiece, but it was created by a friend of the family. If anyone can guess the card this represents, they might get a prize! :mrgreen:
