    It's not sports card related, but after reading about the Menendez brothers being in background of the Mark Jackson card. It reminds of a Toronto Mapleleafs calendar that came out like 15 yrs ago and I was in the background of the one month which had Shayne Corson. I never knew about it and it was one of my buddies daughter that spotted it. So they bought it for me for an Xmas present. Always thought that it was pretty cool

    The Action Packed cards were nice. They have a nice look and texture. Had a few at one point.

    i have that set and a few other wrestling card sets (one from the mid 80's and the other from like '91?)

    I'm surprised i never got the Mattingly rookie card. I had a whole bunch of cards from that year. Never got that one though. I think i have the Strawberry one.

    Yeah, I was a little bit taken aback when I ran across the Mattingly looking through Ma’s Bird cards. I remember everyone in my family loving Mattingly. I grew up in like a sports family so my Dad and brother would always be talking about him. I remember we had one of the first base mits with the auto- signature. And I also remember me and my brother would fight over possession of the rookie card, lol. 

    I think I remember the Strawberry rookie. Kind of has the bat dropped behind him after a swing?

    Nice. I think there is a Donruss rookie as well. Not sure about any other Mattingly rookies.

    Oh, not even sure what year he was a rookie but the ‘83 is the official rookie? Is the ‘84 considered a rookie? I must have been mistaken.

    Upon further inspection one is Topps Traded the other Topps Tiffany. Both considered rookies if I have that right.

    i think his rookie year was '83. but '84 is considered his rookie card. the '83 topps traded cards came out after the regular set and before the '84 set came out

    1984 is Strawberrys rookie.  The 83 traded is considered an XRC, or Extended Rookie.
