2019 Adventures in Repacks - Part 12.1 - Straight from the Source

This was another one of these repacks that I ordered directly. Just 100 cards this time, along with a hit.
The hit was the top card in the repack, so I'll start off with that. The promised memorabilia card came with an autograph. Marshall Plumlee was the third of the brothers to see NBA action, but seems to be out of the league already.

1998 Skybox Premium - Antonio Davis
1999 HoloGrFX - Bison Dele - There were a surprising number of HoloGrFX cards in this.
1997 Ultra - Brian Williams - Back to back cards of the same player, but with a different name. Repack awesomeness!
1992 UD - Larry Nance
1995 UD - Willow Bay - A card of Willow Bay. Because why not?
1995 Hoops - NBA/CBA Pipeline - Mario Elie/George McCloud - An interesting concept combining NBA and CBA players on the same card, although I wouldn't mind some text giving a connection between the two.
1999 Hoops - Baron Davis
1992 UD - Tom Gugliotta
2015 Donruss - Brandon Dawson - This is as close as I'd get to Raptors content in this. The Raptors are the opponent in this preseason game in Vancouver.
1990 Fleer - Robert Hansen
1992 Ultra - Greg Dreiling
1992 UD - Negele Knight
1997 Ultra - Terry Mills - There were also a surprising # of '97 Ultras in this. In terms of appearances of a set, they lead the way with 10 cards.
1990 Fleer - Rex Chapman
1997 Ultra - John Thomas - No Raptors content, but there were Celtics.
1991 Fleer - Kevin Loughery - A lot of coach cards as well as I went through this.
1995 Classic - Lorenzo Orr
1999 HoloGrFX - Jerry Stackhouse - Another loud card!
1997 Topps - Jeff Hornacek
1999 Finest - Bryant Stith
1997 Topps - Joe Dumars
2005 Topps - Wayne Simien
1995 Choice - David Robinson
1994 Choice - Luther Wright
1991 Fleer - Bob Hill - Coach #2
2017 Hoops - Dragan Bender
1997 Ultra - Scott Burrell
1999 Tradition - Jason Kidd
1998 Skybox Premium - Lawrence Funderburke - Chances I'm not scanning a card of a guy named Funderburke? Nil.
1997 Ultra - Bob Sura - Wow. The Cavs unis in this era were hideous.
1990 Fleer - Charles Oakley
1999 Skybox Premium - Steve Nash - Cancon!
1997 Ultra - Brian Shaw
1993 UD - Lloyd Daniels
1990 Hoops - Matt Guokas - #3.
2016 Threads - Earl Monroe - A cool insert card.
1995 Fleer - Mark Price - Were 1995 Fleer basketball as garish as their baseball counterparts? Yes! Ugly as the Cavs unis? Not a chance.
1999 Skybox - Bryant Stith
1999 Finest - Cherokee Parks - Despite not getting a Raptors card, I did get one of their short-lived cousins.
1999 Finest - Gary Payton/Vin Baker
1995 Fleer - Loy Vaught - And did the design change as the division did with Fleer? Of course!
1999 Finest - Hakeem Olajuwon
1993 UD - Hersey Hawkins
1992 Fleer - Robert Parish - Another Celtics card.
1999 Skybox - Eddie Jones
1995 Fleer - Lucious Harris - Enjoy yet another '95 Fleer design. At least you get a guy named Lucious this time.
1992 Topps Gold - Scott Skiles
1995 Fleer - Dale Davis - I'm scanning all of these. Because you should experience 1995 Fleer as well.
1995 Topps - Sherman Douglas - Another Celtics card.

2005 Bowman - Josh Childress - Thus wrapping up the first half.

I was expecting a lot of early 90s Hoops in this as opposed to a lot of late 90s mid-level stuff, so this has been a pleasant surprise so far.

50 more cards to wrap this up with the next post!

  1. Is Willow Bay her name or the name of the body of water behind her?
