First good item I've obtained in a while. Love the players on this card and the Rickey laundry tag is super nice.

Did you have the one from 1998 too? I am going back and reading the forum. Trying to catch up on all I missed. I'm to page 95. Its sad at somepoints reading Ryan's posts.

Interesting I too have a '99 masterpiece. I had heard there were more than one (replacement back doors) but interesting to see them together.

Hi! I have a question for you guys, if you don't mind helping me out. Here's a short backstory. Twenty-five or so years ago a friend who owned a sports card shop gave me box of miscellaneous baseball cards. Neither I nor my young son were into collecting cards so the box was put away untouched, and forgotten about. I recently ran across it again and decided to go through it to see what was there. In that process I found a unique looking 1992 Donruss #193 Rickey Henderson card. The typeface on his name looks different from the names on the other Donruss cards in that set. The corners of the silver metallic lettering on the Rickey's name are rounded kind of like a bubble font, instead of angular. It also looks like the press put down too much of the silver metallic ink as the letters touch each other and the little holes in some of the letters are filled in. I've been researching this for a week now and haven't been able to find out anything about it. I even reached out to a well-respected Ebay card seller and he told me he wasn't familiar with the variation that's on my card. Have you guys seen anything like this before? Is it worth anything? The card is in excellent condition, having lived in a box for over 25 years. I've put it in a sleeve to protect it, just in case. Thank you!

I am no expert on variations and printing errors, but I would think the above falls more on a print error side of the house vs. a true variation. 90’s cards were filled with print errors every year due to sheer quantity produced. That said, my assumption is that while the card is fun and unique, the value just isn’t there beyond what somebody is willing to pay for it. Just my opinion.
