For a guy like me with "less is more" sensibilities, 1995 was very likely THE WORST year in baseball card history... it's not just Fleer, everybody was very much in "LOOK AT ME!" mode.<br /><br />You refer to 95F as the "LSD" set. I think of it as the "WTF?" set, because that's what I said when I opened my one and only pack... and BTW, I shuddered when I saw the wrapper at the top of the post.<br /><br />1995 Fleer grabbed a lot of attention back in the day, but not in a good way. It pretty much polarized people from the start, and got a lot of negative press.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-5477372143284436712014-09-26T03:27:53.800-05:002014-09-26T03:27:53.800-05:00Wow Those were some flashy cards indeed!Wow Those were some flashy cards indeed!Ana Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920996724958583647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5342310663064800554.post-76524201128708927632014-09-25T09:33:21.883-05:002014-09-25T09:33:21.883-05:00I found three packs in a quarter bin at the monthl...I found three packs in a quarter bin at the monthly card show.
