1995 Donruss #539
























Card Review: 7.1  The 90's were a rough decade for Donruss.  However, this card, and this set has grown on me some over the decades.  The photo quality is very high, and it's clear Donruss was at least trying.  Personally, I think they had it right from '82 to '91, and should have just left the template alone.  Leaf was already serving as a de facto "high end" set.  I'm not just picking on Donruss, Fleer and Topps also made the same mistake.

Fun Facts: *Tim Wallach played in the post season for just the 2nd time in his career in 1995.
*Wallach was the 6th oldest player in the National League in 1995.
