Year: 1996

Set: Leaf Preferred (Rate)

Card: #137 Ruben Rivera


“ Isn't this the guy who was stealing bats from Jeter and selling them to a memorabilia dealer? I don't see anything "preferred" that makes this card stand out above any standard Donruss card of this era. I will commend them for the photo. The foul ball in flight is cool. Unless it is superimposed. ” -switzr1

“ So, did he hit or miss? ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I like the way the logo is subtly integrated into the border. Nice big back photo, but doesn't leave much room for stats (in this case, there aren't any). Foil = yuk. ” -dilemma19

“ Okay optical illusion time. Is the ball behind him because he is fouling it back, or in front and to the left because he chopped it foul down the third baseline. ” -rmpaq5

“ We had one of these cards a few weeks back maybe a month ago? Checking... Hmm maybe its still in the queue? ” -captkirk42

“ Defiantly not preferred in my book. ” -carthage44

“ Great picture! ” -cjjt

“ The other Yankee Rivera had a slightly better career. I like the picture and framing and the color scheme is nice. The back is pretty cool too. Not bad. ” -muskie027

“ Nice ” -hphillips

Bought this set in Hawaii a long time ago.  It was missing one card, #75 Caminiti.  It is still missing one card.


-------------------------------

I will entertain trades but please don't offer me a 1993 Dave Stieb for a Nolan Ryan rookie.  I prefer player for player (at least similar era and similar stardom).
