As I have said before the 90s had card companies innovating to stay competitive. Pacific definitely took things to to the extreme with their laser-cut cards and in 1998 they introduced cards with simulated netting in them. A year later they took away the laser-cut and actually inserted netting. While the late 90s started to get jersey cards in most products, which became the big chase cards, these texturally stimulating cards definitely stood out to me. If you have never held one of these cards in your hand, then you might want to consider picking one up as they are really cool. Pacific continued using the netting for a few years in baseball and other products, but I went with the card I remember first with the actual netting, which is from 1999 Revolution. I chose the 1999 Revolution Foul Pole Net-Fusions (Beckett simply lists as "Revolution Foul Pole") card of Jeter because it is a great shot of a young Jeter swinging, which I think goes well with the foul pole netting.
