“ This design was used for the 1996-97 NBA sets with holofoil name/team areas and Ultra logo...my all time favorite Ultra set. The 2004-05 Ultra set was done in what appeared to be a tribute to it as well, another set I liked quite a bit. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Aggravated assault charge in 3..2..1.. ” -SFC Temple
“ Best SS ever? Possibly. Best set ever? Not even close. But, it is a decent set, very good for the 1990s! ” -vrooomed
“ THE WIZARD! Nice card, and I like how it has his complete stats on the back instead of just the recent years. ” -jupiterhill
“ Even though the Cards last used their old navy road cap only two years ago, it seems so out of place. ” -jlaz10
“ Tragically, this photo was taken days before Ozzie disappeared in the "Springfield Mystery Spot". ” -UNC_Samurai
