Is there a spot on the database for these cards? I'm not sure how I got one but its a Reggie Miller card #29. It's just like the base set, but it has a yellow back like the one posted below (found via Google).

All base cards are yellow. The scans posted where they are white are washed out, lazy, garbage scans.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

We can mark the washed out ones as "incomplete" as they are seriously missing the color. Let's get them removed so there will be no more threads about this. This one is the second I can remember in the recent past.

I just looked at the Reggie, and it is yellow. I'm confused. ------------------------------- 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.

The exceptions to that rule I believe are the '89 NBA All-Star Game cards in the set which have white backs, or at least the ones I have do.

I looked at it again today and it was yellow, I guess my eyesight is getting bad. When I looked at it though the first time it didn't look yellow or at least as yellow as mine does. I'll take the blame on that, though I do think some of the cards could be rescanned so the yellow is shown a bit better.
