Completely Red: 2002 Donruss Diamond Kings

What's that? You liked the Diamond Kings subsets from the 80's and 90's? You want more than one DK per team? You want thicker card stock and canvas-like paintings? Friggin' DONE.

Good job, Donruss. These sets are pretty nice. The only negative is the typical negative with the past 15 years: the short prints. Fortunately, the Reds had no short prints this year. All five cards fell 1-100 and not in the pesky 101-150. So this team set cost under a buck. 'Under a buck' is such a great phrase to hear in card world.

STATS:

Cards - 5

RC's - 0

All Stars - 4 (Adam Dunn, Sean Casey, Barry Larkin, Ken Griffey Jr.)

Hall of Famers - 1 (Barry Larkin)

Reds Hall of Famers - 3 (Barry Larkin, Sean Casey, Ken Griffey Jr.)

Checklist:

2 Adam Dunn
19 Sean Casey
20 Barry Larkin
86 Ken Griffey Jr.
97 Austin Kearns


Go Reds.
