Card Review: 9.6 I really like this card. It's the kind of treatment Wallach's iconic rookie deserves. I figured the Chrome version only numbered to 25 had to be fanciest of these, but I was wrong. This card also set a new high dollar mark for me as far as buying Wallach's goes. $11.61 on ebay.
The reproduction of the '82 white border lends itself very well to the refractor treatment. Of the five Wallach refractors, this one is the best looking by a wide margin. It even scans better than the rest. I've never collected an insert subset, or least not a modern one (I admit, I was a huge fan of some of Fleer's subsets in the 80's and early 90's like Pro-Visions and Headliners), but I'm half-way tempted to chase down more of these rookie reprint refractors. I probably never will given they're priced like early 50's Topps, but who knows. I'll add it to my list of things I might do.
Number of this card in my collection: 1 (14 more to go)
