Card Identification Forum

Gee thanks Mark, now I have to go through and check 750 cards. i mean it is not like that is why we all do this right?

All kidding aside, I had noticed the Hall Of Fame vs HOF #### before and never give it much thought. So I know I have some first print and some that are 2nd or 3rd print.

I bought a pack of the 1991 series and pulled a Frank Shanty Hogan. I never knew there was a player with the same last name as me. Now I have about 40 diffferent cards. Both pre-war and post war cards who's first or last name is Hogan in all different sports. No hulk Hogan. He's and idiot.

Ben Hogan is the finest Hogan

Oh God! I want this set now soooooooooooooo bad!

I watched that as a kid. Great stuff.

Thanks for posting this Mark! Not for the 1991 variations info, but for the 1st link. I FINALLY found the info I needed for one of my color cards. I have added the 1995 Color cards CL here:

If anyone has some scans and/or extra info/links to add to it, please do so. I did it to the best of my knowledge and research. I've wanted to know more about my card for a long time now. Just never really hurted down the info. So glad to finally have some of it and get the cards listed on TCDB.

I have been toying with the idea of collecting players with my last name (Martinez), too. Actually, I've added Dennis Martinez to my collection in recent trades and some rookie cards of players with my same surname, but am not sure I'll go all out and collect them. I think I may just go with RCs of players who made the MLB roster. I was telling my son the other day, the good thing is that not many really made it in the Majors, and the earliest one I could find was from the '60s, and he was not too successful so it shouldn't cost me an arm and a leg to continue this along with all my other Wants. (None would make the Conlon sets.) Probably the J. D. Martinez card may be the one that costs me the most and even then should not be that much. There are two players, though, that I didn't really care for, but will probably still need their RCs if I go through with this - Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez. Nothing in particular, just apathetic responses to them as players.

My collection of professional athletes with my last name is complete at zero cards.
