Today's pickups mark my first "First Pitch Preview", one of my favorite insert sets when I was growing up (Hot gloves) and a sweet Diecut Jeter card /3500.

nice pickups eddie... do you find the donruss press proofs quite a bit?

They are hit or miss.

Silvers more often than golds (of course).

I passed up on a Silver Jeter the guy had for $5. Just wasn't worth it.

this guy advertises it as "numbered" but then in the description he says it is #6...
i am guessing they aren't really numbered?

Not numbered, but statistically tough cards.

agreed.. very long odds on these and a very tough find these days. I traded for the Canseco recently and was more than happy to give up GU'ed for it. these still command good BV and SV on the bay when they pop up.

Would love to get the international refractor, but I've never seen one.

To be fair to this seller, he's been moving a *ton* of rare Clarks lately, and he simply used his standard title format. I consider it a simple mistake and not some nefarious plot to defraud bidders...

I bought one card from burbank, so i figured I might as well buy 2...and since he doesn't post scans, i was hoping you could share some scans of the showcase legacy collection 97 & 98....which year/row do you think looks the best? are any rows more valuable than others, it seem he has listed same price?

The different rows had different pics and backgrounds. I think the rate at which they were inserted determines the value, though I don't know too much about the Flair issues. I do know that the 1998 Legacy Collection cards are prone to counter-fitting, maybe someone here with knowledge on that can share.

ok, thanks given.
I did find that in the psa set registry, the 1997 carries the most weight, and of course burbank didn't have those...darn..oh welll, stick with the one.

There was also a row 0, I just don't have a scan up at the moment. They looked very similiar to the base row 0 though.
