I'm not saying I agree with that since I'm not a big fan of RCs coming from those more oddball-type sets (can't remember if '93 was a boxed set or not) like Garciaparra's from '92. Helton actually also had base cards in '96 Bowman and Bowman's Best, though, again, lots of people dislike Bowman for printing "RCs" of players five years before they hit the Majors, if ever.<br /><br />With that out of the way, I really like the autograph and the relic!Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09644523735533872065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7388967132687334512.post-61100072826743214422012-02-13T17:49:50.749-08:002012-02-13T17:49:50.749-08:00Isn't his rookie 1993 Topps Traded?Isn't his rookie 1993 Topps Traded?Kbrewster/90https://www.blogger.com/profile/05202730490253624117noreply@blogger.com
