I agree. Nice card, but sad to see that Leaf cut up a potentially great photo to make that card.

I'm torn on Leaf, mainly the last few years of their products. Feels like they are going a bit overboard, way too many cards with single digit print runs. The comment made by multiple people of "collect what you like" definitely is the key though. I'm a huge Cecil Fielder fan, and I've chosen to stick with collecting his cards and other collectibles from his playing years (1986-1999) and not anything after that. I grew up collecting the junk wax era cards, and there's something about those cards that I still like... may be "junk wax", but some of them had some amazing designs and were where many of the designs often used today got their start (i.e. holograms, refractors, foil, etc.).
