1999 Finest Peel and Reveal Stadium Stars #4 Ken Griffey Jr. (This scan does not do this card justice as there are sparkly stars on the clear acetate behind Griffey's profile that do not show in the scan.)
1999 Private Stock Exclusive #15 Cal Ripken (My son, who has much better luck pulling cards than I do, pulled this from one of his Christmas packs and eventually traded it to me.)
1999 SkyBox Thunder Dial 1 #D3 Ken Griffey Jr.

1999 Upper Deck Century Legends Epic Signatures #FR Frank Robinson (The owner of the Red Zone, a LCS in Bangor, Maine, was planning to give this to his dad but I persuaded him to sell it to me instead. Frank has always been one of my favorite players. The owner's dad was the coach of the Senior Little League team that the team I coached beat for the championship back in 1978. He...did...NOT...like...me. It kind of gave me a sense of one-upmanship to get this card that was supposed to go to him, more than 20 years after he called me most every name in the book because my team wrested the championship away from him. His son didn't recognize me and did not know our history and I left it that way.)
