“ The cards that came with candy canes. ” -trauty

“ Awesome card of a legendary player! Love it! ” -bkklaos

“ Ah, 1991. I had so much promise back in 1991. But I digress. ” -altaeria

“ Quite possibly the back circle on the back was the design inspiration for Obama's presidential logo?!! ” -vanstryland

“ The red, white and blue designs are boring. It's that simple. ” -Phil

Yeah, we can't say "Fleer Ultra" but we can call this "Fleer Stars and Stripes"?


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

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Player - one of the best at his positions in his time.

Card - though I have never had one in my hand, I like the card design and colours overll (better than many other 1991 issues, e.g. yellow!)

And lastly, I am with Chuck on his comment!  Happy he brought it up again as it has been a while since we rehashed that great discussion.

Agreed with Chuck that it should probably just be Stars And Stripes, without the Fleer.  But I don't care all that much.


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

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff.  Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

Fleer certainly made sure to use the stars, but not mant stripes, which is probably a good thing.
