Nice card! Do you think that had to 100% be a foul ball? Because of his eyes.

Just the worst photo I could take of a base, shadow free.

Haha, pretty much how all my pictures turn out. Either a shadow or a flash so bright you cant see the details.

It looks like a bronze card.

I have some great bronze cards from the 90s. I'd be all for some Yordan Bronze border cards to match.

Good to see the thread bumped to the top. He's been hitless the last few games and was waiting for him hit at least a hard single, that'll work.

It's sharp and looks like a nice raw! I'm sure will get resoved thru seller but be easier to swap directly.



Well looks like I will not get my card. I immediatly shipped back the /499 that was wrongly shipped to me.

After way too many messages and way too long delays looks like I will not get my card. To be fair the original seller is offering me the card to buy again. But it's a long story.

If anyone has a Hobby Foilboard for sale pm me!

Thanks! Not as sharp as it looks, unfortunately. White on the top right corner, some minor edge issues, and a finger nail indentation on the front surface. Probably not worth sending in to anywhere except BGS.

I unfortunately missed the offer sent on a BGS 9.5 by the seller so I grabbed this one, the last one out there. I'll upgrade it eventually.

Cards are too thick for the standard size holder? That's the size for a cello pack. Haha
