Year: 1992

Set: Topps Kids (Rate)

Card: #76 Cecil Fielder


“ I liked this set I have to be honest. I was 10 at the time, but even today I still like the idea of a set for kids. ” -jupiterhill

“ Remember kids it's not pronounced Cecil it's pronounced Cessil. ” -addysdaddy

“ I've been collecting since I was 4 years old in 1988, and when I was a kid this design would not have been interesting to me, and it's still not. Although my tastes have changed (I used to really like cards that had just the player superimposed over a digitally created background where now I almost despise them) I never liked being "talked down" to by my cards. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Looks like he ate a couple of kids ” -Young Kilo

“ Love the Q & A in the back, not sure how the background colors around his stats correlate with anything, but hey some moron got paid big to make this set... ” -SaveDaKid

“ The back illustration explains steroids. ” -jlaz10

Hate all you want, but this set is just way too fun. I think I might need to start putting it together.

I agree. Sets that seem ridiculous can often be fun to put together. They're inexpensive too!

Was Cecil ever involved in any steroid allegations?  I always thought he was just a big dude by nature.

To my knowledge he wasn't. He was always that big. He hit 52 homers, which would've been like 100 if he was juicing.
