Completely Red: 1993 Leaf

I can't believe I haven't posted this set yet. It's incredible. It was one of my favorite sets as a kid and remains near the top of the list. Full bleed photography, sweet faux-marble, a touch of foil, city-themed backs. Looks like a design that would fly today. I don't even have a lot else to say. It stands on its own.

RC's - 1 (Tim Pugh)

All Stars - 10 (Rob Dibble, Roberto Kelly, Barry Larkin, Kevin Mitchell, Tom Browning, Jeff Reardon, Bip Roberts, Chris Sabo, Reggie Sanders, John Smiley)

  1. It's weird seeing the front of '93 Leaf cards. I have all the '93 Leaf cards in my collection turned around. The backs are the best.

    1. They're indeed top notch. Modern cards should take note.
