2019 Adventures in Repacks - Part 12.2 - Straight from the Source

The other 50!
1995 Fleer - Robert Pack - Starting off with a very, very pink entry in the 1995 Fleer design.
1997 Topps - Chris Childs
1991 Fleer - Dick Motta - Coach content in the second half as well.
1992 UD - Mark Price
1999 HoloGrFX - Hakeem Olajuwan - Let's show off some gaudy HologrFX cards in this portion as well.
1997 Ultra - Michael Finley
2014 Prizm - Phil Jackson - Full porn-stache mode!
1998 Skybox Premium - Adam Keefe
2007 Co-Signers - Kevin Garnett - Celtics content.
1990 Fleer - Mike Gminski
1992 Archives - Derrick Coleman
1989 Fleer - Johnny Newman - This was the oldest card in the repack.
1999 Hoops - Wally Szczerbiak
1995 Hoops - Craig Ehlo/Jerome Harmon - Another one of these pipeline cards. This was the closest Harmon would get to any NBA card.
1999 Hoops - Randell Jackson
1995 Fleer - Popeye Jones - We really don't need Popeye Jones close-ups.
2012 Leaf - Nihad Djedovic
2015 Prestige - Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
1994 UD - Scottie Pippen
1998 Topps - Dale Ellis
1995 Fleer - Bobby Phills - More 1995 Fleer!
1999 Hoops - Korleone Young - Chances I'm not scanning a card of a guy named Korleone? Nil.
2000 Finest - Vladimir Stepania
1990 Hoops - Antoine Carr
1992 Fleer - Darryl Dawkins
1995 Hoops - Anthony Mason/Chucky Brown - The final of these 'pipeline' cards.
1992 UD - Sarunas Marciulionis
1993 UD - Lloyd Daniels - The only dupe among the 100.
1992 Fleer - Ron Rothstein - Another coach appearance.
1990 Skybox - Lionel Simmons
1990 Fleer - Dan Majerle
1997 Ultra - Chuck Person
2016 Prizm - Ben Bentil - He's a Celtic here, but a zero-year one, as he never played a regular season game for them. I think this is a summer league photo.
1997 Ultra - Bobby Phills
1990 Hoops - Delaney Rudd
1996 Fleer - Grant Long - I love these Hawks uniforms. The hawk's wingspan makes a player's wingspan seem more intimidating.
1997 Ultra - Danny Ferry
1993 Skybox - Charles Barkley - I thought that this card looks like it could be a poster shrunk down to 2*3, and it turns out, it was.
1993 Hoops - Sidney Lowe - Coach #3.
1991 Fleer - Magic Johnson
1990 Skybox - Dick Motta - And #4, for a total of 7 coach cards in the pack.
1995 Fleer - Dale Ellis - More pink!
1999 HoloGrFX - Grant Hill
1995 Topps - Rod Strickland
1997 Topps - Johnny Taylor - "Hey guys! I'm not going to look goofy on this rookie card, am I?"
1990 Fleer - Will Perdue
1999 HoloGrFX - Nick Van Exel - The 5th and final appearance of these rather loud cards.
1992 Topps - Patrick Ewing
1997 Metal Universe - Travis Best - AAAA! I'm in another dimension!
2014 Prizm - Javale McGee - And done.

That was a lot of fun. As I said, I expected a lot of 1990s stuff in there, but there really wasn't too much. I'm not giving it too detailed a look beyond a quick scan-through, but the most common set to appear was 1997 Ultra, with 10 of the 100 cards coming from there. And you had a lot of 1995 Fleer and its memorable (for whatever reason) look.

I'll wrap up this SftS series with some hockey, and start over the next week.
