Today we have one of Upper Deck's forays into the vintage homage sets. Fleer actually brought back Goudey as insert in 1997 baseball and did a full blown Goudey Football set the same year. After Upper Deck bought the Fleer brand it was only a matter of time before they brought back Goudey as well. The 4 in 1 insert was a nod to the 1935 Goudey 4 in 1's, or R321. However where the original Goudey cards were 2 x 2's, or something like that, these cards are the standard 2 x 3. Robin's actually featured on 2 4 in 1's, this card and #35-23 which features all Brewers. The card also features Prince Fielder, Mike Schmidt and Ryan Howard, kind of like a past and present for each team. The black bordered cards are the rarest of the 3 parallels for the set and the only one that is serial numbered.
