[L to R, T to B]
I'm never quite sure what constitutes a rookie card, but each of the first four cards (Donruss, Fleer, Topps, & Score) show his 1987 stats, and those stats are of the minor leagues. The middle/5th card is an 89 Donruss, and it shows his rookie year stats. That is what I typically consider to be his rookie card (or at least one of), but whatever. Last card middle row is a 90 Leaf/Donruss Diamond King. Bottom row shows a 90 Fleer, 90 Score, and an out of order 89 Topps (grrr - fixed!).



This page starts with an 89 Topps Leaders, 90 Topps mini, and the top row ends with a 90 Upper Deck - this is a great photo showing TWO players airborne! Middle row is a 91 Fleer, 91 Score, and a 92 French's Player Series card along with Ryne Sandberg. Bottom row is a 92 Score, space to grow, and a 92 Topps.

 


Next is a 93 Atlantic Fleer, 93 Fleer Ultra, and a Premier 1993 O-Pee-Chee "Star Performers." Middle row is a 92 Score All-Star Team, 93 Upper Deck checklist, and a 94 Fleer. Bottom row shows a 94 Leaf/Donruss, 94 Topps Stadium Club, and a 94 Upper Deck (with another airborne Alomar).

This sheet includes a 94 Upper Deck, space, and a 94 Upper Deck Fantasy Team on the top row. Middle row consists of a 95 Upper Deck Collector's Choice, 95 Fleer, and a 95 3D. Bottom row has a 95 Score with Alomar hop-scotching over someone, space, and a 96 Topps.


The last sheet includes a 98 Bowman, 98 Bowman shiny, and a 97 Topps. Middle row is a 2001 Fleer Ultra, 2002 Topps, and a 2004 Donruss Playoff LP (Estrellas - Spanish for "the star"), which is all in Spanish. The last card is a 2004 Fleer Traditions.

Not my favorite player or collection, but there are some cools cards here.

    I saw your 2004 Donruss Estrellas and wondered where you got it. I need a Rickey Henderson from the same set.

      Hey friend, sorry but I really don't recall. It may have been included in a grab bag I got at the Syracuse Card Show or maybe a card shop in Cooperstown. It wasn't something I sought out.

 Once again, I’m just trying to keep blogger alive (does it ever die?). I continue to collect, but am not motivated yet to post. Hopefully I will someday soon. After all, what’s a collection if no one but you sees it? Stay well, CinciCuse Bill
