Card Manufacturer: Panini
Year: 2012
Card Set: Cooperstown
Card Number: 106
Card Type: Base
The inaugural year of Panini's Cooperstown brand. Panini has got a lot of mileage out of it's Hall of Fame license and it all started here. The design is interesting, I have a hard time deciding if I like it or not, but with so much information hidden around the card it's hard not to like it even if Panini used black and white photos, can't use logos, and opted for only one stat year on the back. But I like the induction year on the top of the front of the card, the active playing years bracketing the player name on the back, and nice write up on the back.
Robin has a bunch of inserts in the set and an autograph. This base card has one parallel, the Crystal Collection, serial numbered to 299 that were seeded 3 per hobby box.
