We've hit the halfway point in our salute to Robin's 11 Topps Sterling base cards.  Card #222 or Robin's sixth card celebrates the impressive feat of hitting for the cycle in 1988.  The other card that comes to mind when thinking for this incredible accomplishment is Robin's 2002 Upper Deck Piece of History Hitting for the Cycle card.  And while the accomplishment was from 1988 the photo featured on the card is not.  I like this card a lot simply for the fact that the nice candid portrait used for it has not been over used in other products.  As a matter of fact I'm not sure I've seen it anywhere else.
