You gotta love cards that don't feature a picture of their subject. No really you don't. This is one of the 4 insert cards Robin had in the set. He also had a base card with parallels and an autograph. And oddly enough it's one of two inserts that doesn't feature his likeness.
There's a lot going on in the front of the card, which is pretty much a summary of his Hall of Fame prowess. It seems odd that there's no mention of 3142 hits on the front. Since belonging to the 3000 hits club, along with his two MVP awards, was why he was a first ballot selection.
When I bought this card, I thought to myself, "Really? Is it a card of Robin Yount, or just a newspaper story on a baseball card?"
