Card Review: 9.1 As far as crappy sets from the early to mid-90's go, this one is pretty nice. A simple clean front with a cool King Kong/Godzilla style back. I almost don't mind the lack of career stats. I also very much appreciate the ribbon on the front which reads "1993." Show me just a partial glimpse of a small part of one side of a card from 1952 to about 1989, I'll be immediately able to tell you the year, manufacturer, and what the other side of the card looks like. Then things get a little blurry for me. I admit, I often have to read the fine print to tell 1993 Studio apart from 1994 Studio. So it's nice of Leaf to make it easy to tell.

I think '93 Leaf would be in the running for my favorite card backs, especially in sets from the 90s.
ReplyDeleteOne of the greatest card backs of all-time:

It's such a great card back that like you say, full stats aren't needed.
