My Baseball Card knowledge hasn't been used for years BUT...

I believe that's the Olympic Series of cards they were sold seperately from the regual Tops run, I think in a cello-pack.

That should be his FIRST card.

What is it worth? I don't know. Probably enough for you to buy a Beckett and check it out.

It's probably worth less today than it was a year ago though.

Nope, I have about 6 of those cards, they were all included in the normal TOPPs distribution that year, and IIRC, that was also Goodens and maybe Clements rookie year as well (Gooden use to be worth something).

Value? Thats a tough one. $50 for the card, but if you get it appraised and it is a 10, could get $1k or more....

I use to be big into baseball cards, then there were too many sets, then the players went on strike, and now baseball for the most part just sucks.... A bunch of greedy kids most of them... Whats with Bonds leaving his home team if they do not pay him more? What happened to loyalty? Guess that left baseball totally when Cal Ripken retired....
