I think I really liked the simplicity of the design: the team color box on the left front; the player name across the back; the silver backing. Nothing groundbreaking.

Oh man. I bought a ton of 1993 Fleer from the neighborhood corner store when I was a kid. The memories. However, I can't help but feel those memories have crashed down. I think about 5-6 years ago I bought a box of series 1 and 2 just to revisit that feeling and didn't think much about it at the time. I stowed away my favorite players and didn't bother looking at them again until recently. Looking through these cards now, I don't quite see what I originally saw in them. It's not a horrible set, but I was surprised how disappointing the photography (not the clarity of the photos but the player poses) appeared to me at this juncture. I think there's a part of me that now believes the back of the cards are better than the fronts. Still, I think the biggest blow are the inserts; Fleer Baseball 1994 and 1995 improved on that aspect quite a bit in my opinion.
