Carrier, Mark (DB-2)

Gameday 1992, #446
Action Packed 1992, #21

CARDS: Gameday 1992, Skybox 1992, Action Packed 1992, Action Packed All Madden Team 1990, Pro Set 1991
ACQUIRED: 2023, Paid Signing

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

NOTES:

I saw a cheap signing for Mark that I had to get in on, so I plunked down the cash and went all in. The Pro Set 1991 card, was actually a special edition #800 for the Defensive Rookie of the Year. It was released as part of the Pro Set 1990 Update. I hadn’t ever seen the All Madden card before. I had probably gone through nearly an entire box at 7-11, but never gotten one. Great pickups.

NOTES:

I had a set need in Gameday 1992 to knock out, but I also had a curiosity in getting the Action Packed 1992 dual card signed by him and Jeff Gossett. After I got Jaeger, I got Gossett shortly after on the card. Great dual auto card.

Pacific 1991, #488

NOTES:

I thought Mike might make a good fit for the XFL, but he seems content to stay semi-retired. I needed Mike for the Gameday 1992 set, but I figured I might as well toss in the Pacific card, since it was from his Seattle days. A good signer TTM, he had moved and my cards were RTS but I got the golden forwarding address.

Mike must have a great personality as he seemed beloved in both Seattle and Minnesota.
