Year: 1989

“ Not sure what Score was thinking when they used this design to follow up their inaugural set. I wish they had left out the inner colored border. This set was not popular, at all. ” -DaClyde

“ 1989 Score ... nice + set .. many ERRs/VARs...double ++ set. ex.Paul Gibson classic obscene error! ~BOB~ ” -BOBSCARDZ

“ Score's second attempt at a large set. I liked the design and for the most part, the numbers on the reverse were in the same spot - just a few exceptions. Looking now, the photography could have been crisper, but I always liked Score's write up on the reverse. ” -vrooomed

“ Such a simple design but when you are over producing your product, what else would you expect? ” -carthage44

“ For being as "plain" as it is, I actually like this card. Simple and to the point with a good amount of information on it. ” -engine614

“ I like simple, uncluttered designs that dedicate most of the card space to the player's image. ” -C2Cigars

“ Two-in-one stirrups. Ugh. ” -jlaz10

“ I don't think his cap could be smaller, doesn't fit his head. ” -JimStaub

“ What were they thinking leaving Griffey JR. out of this set? Not sure if it was because they had to or not. But even the mass produced Donruss on flimsier card stock sells better (but not much) than Score on better stock. Alas, there's always the update set for the card companies to play "catch up" with (and make a few more bucks). ” -bhk5150

The player in the background of the card is adjusting his crotch cup in card #595a. It's valued at 25 cents. The Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards say's hand airbrushed away in card 595b. It's valued at 5 cents. Maybe more to a error card collector. ------------------------------- Dave

I think the original card looks better. Looks as if his arm is just hanging there. In the airbrushed version, it looks like his hand is in his pants.
