NOTES:

Well I thought I was going to this event but my wife made me scrap my plans at the last second. In stepped in my friend Mark in a pinch. He helped me knock out Tony on my set needs and then quite a few others, that he just had extras of. He knocked out the Skybox, Pro Set, Action Packed and Fleer needs just like that.

I hadn’t gotten any cards of him in his Jets uniform, so this one was an added bonus in a time I wasn’t collecting. Topps Stadium Club’s logo was a product of the time- as the late 90s was all about looking edgy. Lol I absolutely hate it.

Tony’s Score 1990 is an oddity. He feels like an afterthought in the set as he’s the final card after all the 1990 Rookie cards.

NOTES:

Some really cool cards of Scott here. My wife’s husband showed me some old Pro Set 1990 he had dug up, and there was Scott’s card sitting there in mint condition. It sorta seared into my brain and reminded me I needed to write him. You could say I was inspired!

NOTES:

Besides getting a variety of children’s books published he created, Ray has also been involved in the Spring football league scene. He served as an advisor at one point for the USFL. When writing him I went off on a giant tangent about Spring football and how important it is to me and these players. He kindly responded with a nice greeting card of his Darby the Dinosaur, and inside he wrote that he also enjoys watching Spring football as well.

Originally I sent Ray 3 cards, and included a Score 1991, forgetting that I had already acquired this as part of the Akron Acquisition back in 2011. I threw in his Topps card because Ray was one of the original players who dolled themselves up with the eye paint back in the day. His Pro Set 1990 photo is an extremely underrated action shot perfectly encapsulated on this card.
