Set: Panini Chronicles - 2018 Donruss Rated Rookies (Rate)

“ There is something about the "RATED ROOKIE" that just always takes me back to childhood. I think it reminds me of the feeling of excitement as a kid when I would see these cards in a pack and know that most of my friends were going to want to trade for them. I'm happy they have kept the font the same! ” -Kidd Fan 5

“ Was this card selected randomly or was it selected by "Chance"? I like Donruss card designs and paper stock, but without that MLB license and team logos, I just can't bring myself to buy them. ” -bpaul14

“ Thought this was a Buster Posey card at first and was going to comment about it being on his birthday but NO not that. Oh and look it's Orioles Orange and Black not Giants. Ugh I hate this with logoless cards. I really like the retro Donruss Panini cards, but really hate the whole exclusive license thing that Topps has had for the last billion years. I LOVE CARDS WITH LOGOS. I think they should at least be able to mention the dang Team name. ” -captkirk42

“ No logos - no go for me ” -Paullilko

“ I would collect Donruss baseball if it was licensed. Alas (sigh). Stupid exclusive licenses. ” -muskie027

I don't buy much Panini baseball, but from what I've seen over the last year or two, I've generally been pleased with how they work around the lack of logos. I mean, where in the world would you see a team logo on this card if they were allowed to have one? Give me more catchers in full gear, or guys finishing their swing. They aren't perfect, don't get me wrong. The lack of logos on cards that should have them (pictures from the front of batters) is glaring, but I feel like a good portion of the cards in their sets anymore use photos that hide that area of a jersey or helmet, so they aren't as hard to digest.

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

I'm with Kidd Fan 5, seeing that "Rated Rookie" immediatlely takes me back to my childhood. Only now I know that the "rating" is somewhat speculative. ------------------------------- Check out my collecting journey: https://youtube.com/@crushnmove04 Dougie's going deep tonight!
