Random Card of the Day

Year: 2015

Set: Panini USA Baseball Stars & Stripes - Silhouettes Signature Jerseys (Rate)

Card: #2 A.J. Minter


“ Neat card. Hard nof to like the national team on cardboard. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I am falling behind on my Braves, with all the rookies coming up the last few years I didn't even know the name. Looked him and found out this is his second year in the majors. As for the card, it is a typical game-used or autograph card. It is cool that it has both but the first few times I saw autograph cards and game-used cards I was in awe back in the late 90s and early 00's but they have stayed basically the same since. A swatch in the middle for the game-used and an autograph in the bottom for autographs. On the back either a blurb about the player or a congratulations for getting the card. In nearly 20 years barely any changes to the formula. ” -davidhandberry

“ Just watched this guy pitch for the Braves yesterday (May 16). ” -carthage44

“ If it weren't for TCDB, this would be the sort of card I'd own without knowing I owned it. ” -dilemma19

“ For some reason I am not a fan of Team USA cards. I really am not a fan of jersey uniform relic cards previously known as GU cards (always questionable as to "which" game they were used in if actually "used" at all). I like autos love on-card autos not this on sticker "strickergraphs" (I think that is the term a blogger uses that sounds sort of cooler than what the things actually are) ” -captkirk42

“ Does Panini understand what the word Silhouette means? I don't see one anywhere on this card. ” -vrooomed

“ Looking at Minter in the TCDB he had 192 cards since 2014. It looks like 75-80% or more are signed memorabilia cards like this one. Too much of a good thing ends up just making it a thing. ” -Lerxst2112

“ good looking card. and by panini no less. ” -parsley24

“ Tired of the same picture on front and back. Why not just put a picture of the players back on the back, something different. ” -NJDevils

“ Wish I had more of these cards. Love em. ” -IfbBirdsCards

“ Cool card. Not too much knowledge from me on Minter, but I like it! ” -muskie027

Sometimes I really hate autocorrect. Lately it's been changing my words to make up it's own. I tried to type Saturday and got "saturSat" yesterday, for example, and now it's thinking that's a real word.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

I have a few of these and I like their looks, too. As long as there are buyers for the design why change it?
