Two 1998 Collector's Edge McNairs to close out the year:


1998 Collector's Edge Odyssey Level 2 Hologold 3Q

The first one is a duplicate of sorts for me, as I already have a copy. However, the one I had is stamped /150 (as inserted into packs), while this one is stamped /30 (exchanged for an improperly stamped, pack-inserted copy), so I'm comfortable having it in my collection without violating my "no duplicates" policy.


1998 Collector's Edge Masters HoloGold

Second one is new for me, and a real find. /10, so crazy hard to come by. I understand that there are copies that do not have the serial numbering on the back, but this one does. Holographic/prismatic serial-numbering, which is kind of cool. Pretty ugly damage on the back, but good enough to wind up as an 8.8 in a USA (!) slab. Real pain in the butt slab to crack, for those who are wondering.

1999 Fleer Mystique Star Power #4SP Emmitt Smith

On account of this thread being dedicated to 90s cards, I propose that the thread title be updated to include a "56k warning." Who's with me!?

Don't collect much football, just the odd Pats card here and there. So when I came across this Kevin Faulk SPx Radiance /100 Rookie for $10 I couldn't resist.

Glad you didnt. Although the timing would have been close. I grabbed it almost immediately. I would have cried for days.

I'm glad you found one to replace the 23/25.

I've been on the lookout for it to pop up on eBay or any platform for that matter.

Thanks! I was very fortunate to pick up a different copy. Still holding out hope for the missing one to show up but I haven’t been able to track it down either.

I know that this is the type of card that typically warrants its own thread, but I'll avoid cluttering up the Football forum to be sure that none of the Mt. Rushmore threads gets knocked down to the second page, which would be a crying shame.


1996 Pro Line Intense Phone Cards $3 Proof #25 Steve McNair

Numbered /96 and she's all mine now.

I must have been to busy trying to go after C. Woodson and B. Griese that year “1998”. Thought I had seen them all but this is a gorgeous card !

Any chance that 2000 Men Barry is FS/FT?

There’s a new LCS in my town. Went in today and he had a full box of 1997 Action Packed. Bought it hoping to get some of the Cowboy extra points I need. Didn’t pull any or really anything of note except this:
