Year: 1997

Set: Topps Stars (Rate)

Card: #125 Lance Berkman


“ Gee, I wonder if he might be a draft pick...? ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Fringe HOFer. ” -carthage44

“ I don't like all the Draft Picks over part of the card. Either do the whole background or a row or something but how many times on the front of the card do you need to let us know he is a draft pick? If you like stars this is the card for you! ” -davidhandberry

“ Holy Smokes! I had no idea Lance Berkman was drafted when he was 14 Man he looks young! ” -rmpaq5

“ One of my favorite players to collect, Fat Elvis. He epitomized a championship character on and off the field. ” -Sportzcommish

“ hmmm, he might have been a draft pick, hard to tell ” -Lennoxmatt

“ This front is so cluttered it gives me a headache ” -Bargunmaster

“ Looks more like a yearbook photo than a baseball card ” -switzr1

“ Would have been nice without the words "draft picks" stamped all over the card. ” -NJDevils

“ Ohhhhh, he was just a baby back then. Not as cut as could have been had he let the roids take over. LOL. Absolutely awful looking card. This card could be the single reason it took me almost 10 more years to get back into the hobby. ” -parsley24

“ What this card needs is more stars and maybe a few more "draft picks". Definitely more stars though. ” -cnangle

“ Ah Mid 1990s madness. This was a time I was on hiatus from the hobby, well I still sort of got my yearly Redskins team sets for a little while, but for Baseball I was totally out. My the front is way way too BUSY. Get rid of all those "Draft Pick" graphics and it is a nice looking card. Oh and add the team name OK. Back a bit of a waste half a photo and half a short bio with no stats. ” -captkirk42

“ Alright! Fresh outta college Lance Berkman, pre-Fat Elvis/Big Puma days. He was really something to watch. This was a fun Topps Stars set. Wonder how long it'll be before they revive that line. ” -marcbrubaker

“ Good design. Bad pictures. ” -cjjt

“ This card is overdone. There is too much activity going on. I am not a big fan of this card ” -Jd_sports

“ Too much going on. This is awful. ” -muskie027

Looks like a My Little Pony threw up some stars and glitter around Mr Berkman.

I am in agreement! Way to much added to the front of this card or set I might say. Like seeing the babyface boys entering a career! Some of the card companies go way overboard in design. One simple Draft word at the bottom would have dont this justice.
