Random Card of the Day

I guess there is a meaning for the number 253 or just that was the exact amount of pieces the available jerseys could be torn.

Really hate memorabilia cards with these generic "Congratulations! Enjoy your memorbilia card." messages on the back instead of some actual text about the player.

Patricio: first, welcome to the Database! Second, the cards in the set are numbered to whatever they could get out of a jersey, all different numbers throughout the set. 

hphillips: front scan is not dark, You know I actually take the time to make the cards look like they do in hand. Fleer messed with the photos on this set, kind of like an Instragram filter, ten years before Instagram existed. I agree with you on the historical memorabilia but in modern times they wear each jersey only once, I believe, There are stoies of marquee players changing jerseys at halftime so there would be more memorabilia available to sell- that's potentially 164 jerseys in a regular season, and that does not even take the playoffs or preseason into account. For modern stuff- I'll say post lockout #1-it doesn't bother me. For vintage stuff I hate to see that get cut up. I have a Bob Cousy relic that I pulled that has blue material- that can only be from his very breif time as a player/coach of the Royals, so it had to have been significantly rare. That is, of course, if the relics were ever actually used by the player in the first place. Lots of people believe they are all fake, though I am not one of them.
