Random Card of the Day

Year: 2001

Set: Fleer Tradition - Lumber Company (Rate)

Card: #15 LC Chipper Jones


“ Typical early 2000s Fleer insert. Not bad, but not spectacular either. Knowing Fleer, there is a version where the circle the team logo is in is replaced by a piece of bat relic. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Future HOFer? I say yes. Not a bad design and layout for an insert card. Numbering for the set should be xxLC instead of LCxx. ” -vrooomed

“ The Lumber Company insert has been around for a while and I have always enjoyed them. ” -carthage44

“ The Braves have some of the best pant designs in the league, given that their braid goes around the belt tunnels as well. ” -jlaz10

“ I saw Chipper at a bowling alley near where I work. The alley put 2 lanes worth of special needs kids next to him. Given his reputation at the time, I expected him to immediately bolt. He signed something for every one of those kids, took a couple pictures, then bolted. I've been a fan ever since. ” -jackal726

“ Eww. Not much in the design department on this one. Looks like pulled icons out of a hat and tossed them on red construction pater and said "New design done!" ” -koloth42

  I like this card.  Nice bright background and you can see and read everything on it.  My only issue is the term "Lumber Company" which usually refers to the 1979 Pittsbugh Pirates.  But so what, doesn't make the card any less appealing.

He looks like a chipmonk with all that crap in his cheeks.
