Default Describe the 90s in one card.

Here's my opening contender. I know there are stronger ones out there, but this is a good opening salvo.



Cue the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers theme!

Beginning of the era where they started to experiment with changing Feel of cards and not just a flat piece of Board

Except generations won't appreciate him more as they get older.

OneDay- You nailed it !
Drew Bledsoe - One of the players from the 90's who had strong prices and a good following, but his cards we're still at shows at least a couple years ago.
One Huge aspect left off of the 90's so far was COMPETITION ! Roughly 20 + companies all attempting to come up with something better. Today, it's going in reverse.

I had to scroll back up when I saw the second Bledsoe because I just assumed the first one was posted by you. Then I realized both had been posted by not-ssbledsoe and the Stranger Things theme started playing in my head.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS AND SUPERHEROES!

Overall, I'm having a hard time thinking of a single set that represented the 90s better than 1997 Fleer Ultra and it's wacky inserts.

Not my card, but this one epitomizes the greatness of 1990s cards.
