Can't locate anywhere, but I can tell you that the text added to the picture (not on the card itself but on the picture) is not correct. The All-Star card is in the database (and elsewhere online) and this is not that card.

Thanks Dan - the notation on the top is just my labelling - (Ripken will always be an All-Star) - I know that this is not correct for this specific card....
I may have found the answer - it looks like Colla in 1993 issued a 8 card postcard set for Mike Piazza and Ripken...this is coming from my Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards (2009)...the only 1992 Colla card for Ripken is the one you referenced - the All-Star card....
Thanks for the reply..
JB

Donruss cards of year 199x usually had a copyright date of 199(x-1) - maybe this is what is going on here as well with this Colla set. However, http://www.comc.com/Cards,sr,=1993+The+Colla+Collection+Cal+Ripken+Jr%7B46%7D+Postcards,ot,i100 - look at the backs of those. Doesn't match the back of yours.

There is a Ken Griffey Jr postcard that is similar to this Cal Ripken Jr postcard on COMC. We could list it as 1992 Barry Colla Postcards. Fritsch Cards has some for sale, however, I don't see Ken Griffey Jr listed for the 1992 set. Also saw a Barry Larkin postcard on eBay. We could add the 8 postcards into the database.

Dan - You're right...I think I'm back to trying to locate this card as a 1992 Colla card...the search continues..

SunDevil - The Griffey and Larkin examples do appear to look like my Ripken card - the reverses of both also match up to my Ripken card as well...however I can't locate a checklist that includes these 3 cards so I'm not sure how they should be listed in the database...

Good thing he isn't holding his brother's bat!

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |
