Year: 1989
Set: Fleer - Glossy (Rate)
Card: #600 Pete Smith
“ Great era from Fleer. I like it! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ The front of 89 Fleer is not one of my favourites. Cards like this one make it look he is pitching right in front of a barn door. Nothing wrong with the back. ” -rmpaq5
“ OHHHHH, GLOSSY!!! ” -carthage44
“ I always liked the 1989 Fleer set. I was glad to see them do something with the backs to make the Glossy set different from the regular set. Solid design. A shame the card (as of the day we're doing the write-ups) is missing the border on the right side. ” -vrooomed
“ Many collectors really pan this set, but it has always been one of my favorite Fleer issues.....the glossy set is beautiful, but I must say I prefer the yellow back of the regular issue vs the blue. Nice card of this former 1st round pick.... ” -tbshaw
“ Even though this is perhaps one of the most overproduced Fleer set ever, it is still one of my faves. Uh-OH is this a variant because of the "Collector's Edition"? Never mind just noticed it was the GLOSSY version. Never mind then. Still mega overproduced. ” -captkirk42
“ ugh. ” -RoundtheDiamond87
“ Ooh La La! Glossy Fleer! I'm not the biggest fan of the "prison bars" border, but otherwise I like this design. Pete Smith was an okay pitcher, in a rotation soon to be crammed with studs. ” -dilemma19
