Here's another set sent to me by reader Chad, Fleer's 2002 Maximum. Though the name is Maximum, it's release was minimum - just one year.
The set has a total of 270 cards, though 70 of them were short printed or numbered. There were at total of ten Cubs cards, but I have just eight of the ten. I'm missing the two numbered cards. They belong to rookies and were numbered to 500.
Mark Prior was one of the two. I could get his card if I'm willing to shell out $39 bucks. I'm not.
The other rookie is Scott Chiasson. Who you say?? I agree. The guy had a ten game career with an ERA north of 11. Yet he has a /500 card I have to chase and I couldn't find one listed anywhere. I'm afraid I'm going to have two holes in my collection for a while.
Not sure I've seen these cards before... but I like it when card companies match border colors with team colors.
