2010 "1990" ud stamped anniversary buy backs?

[mouschi]

I'm sure the 20th Ann Holo's are real and are from Upper Deck........... but after seeing Holos on theses (Fake)1989 Griffey Rookie Buy Backs from 2009............... someome got some Stickers from somewhere...........

Those actually just look like generic "security" holograms with black type on top of them. Plus, I bet you could peel those off because of there being a "lip" from the sticker to the card. Both are unlike 90 UD buybacks, which are a true UD hologram and you cannot detect or feel a lip from the hologram to the card.

With all that said, those Griffeys truly make me curious as to what their story is?

This thread is a real oldie and moldy. But I'm digging it up anyway.

I stumbled on a COMC seller "kinglarry" with 22 of these 1990/2010 20th anniversary hologram stamped cards for sale. I say stumbled because they're not listed as such, they're just listed with the normal 1990 UD cards. He accepted my offer, so I picked up the Alomar. Some good players here if anyone is interested...

I definitely don't regret picking these up when I had the chance. Especially after adding the 1989 version years later.

Pity he only listed the stars. How am I supposed to get my Hensley Meulens and Dann Howitt cards?
--
Digging thru my DMs, apparently he countered my initial offer and I have absolutely no memory of what happened next, aside from my not buying the cards, apparently. 12 years later, it was a perfectly reasonable counter...I guess I just didn't have as much disposable income back then.

It's really a shame you can't message sellers on COMC. You could write this guy and say "Guess what. I got a fever. And the only prescription is more Howitt!"

No Ryno!

I didn’t see any Puckett’s either. I found one a few years ago though, happy to land it when I did.

I have a Carlton Fisk from this set. Picked it up for $10 years ago when someone first broke the set on eBay.

Cool card. But that's from 2009, where they put the 20th anniversary stamp on 1989 cards. The ones on COMC right now are these quasi-mysterious unreleased cards from 2010, with the same stamp put on 1990 cards.

Since this thread was bumped back up into the light, I pulled my Edgar's out to share.

Nice!

Ty to @Pinbreaker for the heads up on the Clemens one. Strangely, the kinglarry seller had one and there was a 2nd from another seller in a CSG holder. Happy to report both sellers accepted lower offers and I have both headed this way for the price of a large pizza.....

 

[banjar]

Glad you got those. I was hoping some people here would pick a few up.

When I looked at COMC for those, I was checking to see if there were any that collectors I know needed them. I saw the Clemens and instantly reached out.
I posted in a few other groups on FB about this thread so hopefully player collectors picked up their guy!

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Me too! Can't remember how much I paid at all! But glad to have them!

Thanks! I’ll need to find any others he had available. Appreciate the info

Not directly related to this set, but related to the company...

I just got back from a week in Carsbad and remembered a few days before we were leaving that UD was headquartered there. I found it and did a drive by. I walked into the lobby and it was fairly sparse, much like a typical corporate office. Was hoping maybe there would be some cool historical displays but they really don't do anything special, although there was a Jordan signed jersey with a couple other things I didn't get close enough to identify and a large 2 story Jordan mural. The receptionist said no photography, so no images to share. All in all, a disappointing visit, but not unexpected. No dumpsters that I could see on the back side of the place. That was probably shut down many years go to avoid dumpster diving. About as fruitful as my Topps visit in Manhattan in 2022.

Glad to see you were down in my area. Last time I was near there was to play golf @ https://thecrossingsatcarlsbad.com/.

I need to get back down there to get a club fitting at Callaway Golf which happens to be in Carlsbad as well.

Cool to see COMC recognize these (at least one in the correct category so far) https://www.comc.com/Cards/Baseball/2010/Upper_Deck_-_20th_Anniversary_1990_Buybacks,sr,i100

Any of these graded by PSA?
