My favorite Michael Jordan baseball card

The other day I was looking for a few cards, and pulled out my tin of Michael Jordan cards. Literally, it's a tin. I've got about 10 MJ's in top loaders, and then a small plastic case filled with other various Jordans. I collected a lot of basketball cards from about 1994-1998. I collected a lot more basketball than baseball in those days. I loved the NBA (still do), and I loved basketball cards. It was around the time when insert cards were becoming big, but before the time when autos and game-used came along. It was simpler times.

I don't have that many good Jordan cards. A handful could probably fetch $10-$20 on eBay, but I enjoy hanging onto them. I also have a few Jordan baseball cards, and my favorite is undoubtedly this one:

I always loved this card, and envied my cousin for having it. I was always more into cards than he was, and when he was moving houses he didn't want to bring his cards along, so he gave me a binder and this card was luckily in there. The funny thing is that this is from 1991, a few years before MJ left the Bulls to pursue baseball. Who knew at the time it was foreshadowing things to come? I like all my Jordan baseball cards, but without a doubt this one is #1 for me.
