TCDB Trade Recap: Cards From Pierre, SD

Have you ever had a card that you saw so many times online that you swore you had it, only to find out you didn't? For the life of me, I swore I had almost all of the Red Sox related cards from the awesome Pinnacle subset "Idols". Turns out I didn't have any of them!  While trading away some spare 2023 Topps base to TCDB member named James, I made sure I knocked two of those off the old list.
 

Idols is such a fantastic idea for a subset. It gives the fans a glimpse into the people who inspired the players we followed. Where else would you find Jackie Gleason, Malcolm X, or Mike Bossy in a baseball card set?

Favorite Card: If you couldn't tell, I'm a fan of those Idols. However, I just got to give a shout out to that Bartolo Colon rookie card!
 
Thanks for the cards James!

  1. I've read that they didn't go over very well at the time, but I've always liked Pinnacle's early 90's black border sets. I thought that they worked well for all sports.
