Random Card of the Day

Year: 1995

Set: Topps (Rate)

Card: #415 Mike Magnante


“ I think if they had chosen a different font for the person's name, I would have liked this design a lot better. I actually like the back more than I like the front. The 1994-95 NBA set which uses this design does not hit 400 cards. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ This looks cool. If I remember right, the foiling really made these cards stick together. ” -muskie027

“ Not the flashiest concept but it stands up as one of the best Topps designs of the era. The real highlight is the back of the card elements. I sure do miss the days when card backs were more than just an afterthought. ” -mkaz80

“ The front is typical boring Topps. The back though is one of the best in baseball card history. ” -davidhandberry

 At least Topps tried something different and you can tell what year it is from simply looking at it unlike the bulk of the sets in the 2010s.      Good set.

Don't like the name font, hard to read. Back is too colorful.
