2006 Fleer Baseball Fat pack

I bought this fat pack of 2006 Fleer recently off e-bay. Why? Well it was very cheap, the 2006 Fleer Tradition is one of my favourite recent designs and I hadn't opened any Fleer, other than Tradition, and thought to myself-Why not?.

The Fat Pack:

#8 Garret Anderson Angels

#9 Jarrod Washburn Mariners

#14 Vladimir Guerrero Angels

#372 Aaron Rowand Phillies

#373 Carl Everett Mariners

#T40-3 Albert Pujols Cardinals

#T40-5 Vladimir Guerrero Angels

Well 2 Red Sox from a fat pack of 50 cards is not a great ratio. But I can see the benefits of these packs for the set collectors, however many serious collectors are looking for the hits per square yard. No hits in the Fat packs.

1991 O-Pee-Chee baseball

The 1991 O-Pee-Chee Premier set contained 132 cards.
There were no inserts or parallels.
Each pack contained 7 cards (this pack had 6 cards)

The Pack:

#48 Andres Galarraga Expos

#110 Doug Simons Mets

#118 Pat Tabler Blue Jays

#123 Alan Trammell Tigers

#52 Leo Gomez Orioles

#90 Jose Offerman Dodgers

No Red Sox, however I did pull my mandatory Dodgers card. And what are the odds of pulling two Canadian teams from a Canadian pack?

1994 Flair baseball

The 1994 Flair set consisted of 450 cards, broken into two series of 250 and 200 cards.

It included inserts of 10 Wave of the Future, 10 Outfield Power and 10 Hot numbers in Series 1, 10 Hot Gloves and 10 Infield Power in Series 2.

The most distinctive feature of these cards was the brilliant cardboard packaging that I am surprised that they haven't re-introduced it in some form to deter pack searching.

I really enjoyed opening these packs. Only 1 Red Sox card, but a few past Red Sox and soon to be Red Sox cards here.

The thick card stock and full bleed pictures make this an attractive and collectable set. I am still completely bowled over by the cardboard boxes each pack is contained in. What bought a halt to this special brand?
