The clear cards are back!
That was the big news for E-X in 2003. Last seen in 1999, the clear cards were brought back for the 102-card set. The final 30 cards are short prints, and unfortunately for me, the Cubs have three of those. In fact, one of them, the Mark Prior card, is on my most-wanted list. It is currently not found on any of my usual online card sources. The other two short prints belong to Hee Seop Choi and Todd Wellemeyer. Those were not to tough to get, nor did they cost too much. I'm hopeful the Prior card will surface.
The design of the cards features a couple of large staggered boxes along with the player's name, number, and team logo. They kept the cards pretty minimalist, so that there is lots of clear.
