Love that card, made so much money off that card and all the variations! Nice thing about 89 Fleer was once you learned their pattern you could find it and Ken G easily in rack packs and cellos. Many hours spent in K-Mart and other stores hunting. LOL

Had to have been the most talked about and sought after card of our era, right up there with the 84’ Donruss Mattingly.
