With the World Series still going on, I'll showcase another Tino card from his Lost Years. Here we have a 2002 E-X. I always liked these sets and still do. Sure, the graphics are a little gaudy, but I like clearcuts, so this brand was always one I looked forward to. The gold areas above and below the red woosh are translucent. Not full-on clearcut, but I can still see my finger on the other side.
The stats on the back are sort of weird. I don't mind seeing team-by-team stats, but why not include all teams? I'm sure it's because of limited real estate, but it's still odd.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
