They were not exempt from errors, though, as this Tim Salmon indicates: https://www.comc.com/Cards/Baseball/1996/Pinnacle_Dennys_Instant_Replay_Full_Motion_Holograms_-_Base/16/Tim_Salmon/2118418/Ungraded/COMC/EX-NM<br /><br />I got a lot of Conlon Collection, as well as Pacific Legends and TCMA, cards when I was younger, but found it hard to get into them save for the most famous players (Jackie Robinson, Ruth, Gehrig, etc.) despite being super into baseball. It wasn't until I started running sim tournaments at whatifsports and resources like b-r.com gained prominence that former players could be contextualized as part of teams rather than just old guys who played a long time ago (when there was no color!). Now, I would love it if there was some massive set featuring pretty much all of the notable players in baseball history.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14229291739813356346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-29220097025662568542020-05-08T22:45:58.899-05:002020-05-08T22:45:58.899-05:00Still haven't placed a Card Barrel order... bu...Still haven't placed a Card Barrel order... but I have placed several Sportlots orders in the past few weeks.<br /><br />Love the DB Cooper card.
