FUNNY CARD SERIES 9

1988 - FLEER - BILL RIPKEN

Here is perhaps the most famous card to slip by the company and produced. Pay attention to the bat knob. Once they realized it they scrambled to fix it before too many was released in packs. Some made it through unedited. After all was said and done, about 8 variations of the card was released.

  1. This card could go in an "Iconic" card series. I was collecting back when this card came out and I remember the huge deal with it.
