Year: 1991

Set: Fleer Update (Rate)

Card: #U-89 Pete Harnisch


“ The design of this particular set reminds of the Playbill magazines one would get when attending an opera or a Broadway play. "Pete Harnisch: The Musical!" ” -Theron_Nett

“ One of the most beautiful set in the history of trading cards. Just beautiful. The yellow makes any card exquisite to look upon. Too bad the print run was super low. Not too many collectors can have these to spruce up their collection. (Sarcasm gets lost in print). ” -CardFlipper1974

“ I liked the 1991 Fleer's. I miss the days when they used to make drastically different looking cards each years. Instead today Topps makes similar looking cards every year. They've gotten lazy! ” -tinyshogun

“ 91 Fleer is in the top 5 of worst set designs. ” -Matt9975

“ Ahh, the Coldplay set. "And it was all yellow." ” -tenlbpain

“ 1991 Fleer should have come with a disclaimer of how staring at them too long can lead to scarring of corneas and vision loss. ” -DocOso

“ Nice Fleer card This set gets a bad rep. First it is smack dab in the midst of the Super Overproduced years, then people just don't like the canary yellow border. I happen to like it, and because many people dislike it so much I begin to like it even more. ” -captkirk42

“ I don't care what anyone says, I LOVE the yellow borders in 1991 Fleer. Always have always will. ” -hiflew

“ I always like this yellow design. I do think it was too much like 1990 Donruss though. ” -muskie027

Despite its reputation, I don't mind this set. The front is very easy to read, and there are full color headshots on the back. Not a great design, but not bad.

It's bright, but not much wrong with the design otherwise.

They should have made the update set orange or something.

One of the best insert sets of all timehttps://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/10236/1991-Fleer---Pro-Visions

I don't care what anyone says, this product is still fun to open. Who doesn't love to pull a Bo Jackson or Griffey? The fun of pulling a Griffey from a early 90's wax or rack is still the same 30 years later. 

Thanks, Frank

If you don't like this then there's something wrong with you.

There's no mistaking it for anything else, that's for sure. I like being able to look at a card and immediately know what year/set it is. This particular player's card is really well composed with the way the player is framed in the shot at the top of his windup. That's a baseball card, man!
