2005 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes #65

Year: 2005
Manufacturer: Upper Deck
Set: Baseball Heroes, Heroes
Card Number: 65
Card Type: Base

The end is here!! Well at least for my series on Robin's 2005 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes base cards.  The last of Robin's cards is one of my favorites, but I'm a sucker for art cards.  Like his Fleer Provision or Diamond Kings cards this one is pretty sweet.  Unlike his 4 other cards in the set which celebrate a single achievement this card just celebrates Robin's whole great career.

Continuing our series for Robin's 2005 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes cards we have #62.  Card 62 celebrates Robin's first and only Gold Glove Award from the 1982 season.  I don't know if the photo used could get anymore 80's.  Baby blue uniform and flip up sunglasses!

2005 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes #61


Year: 2005
Manufacturer: Upper Deck
Set: Baseball Heroes, Heroes
Card Number: 61
Card Type: Base


Upper Deck's 2005 Baseball Heroes is another one of those sets that has a little something for everybody and a lot of it.  It seems that almost every set had a rainbow of color parallels, insert, and just odd variations that really aren't that well documented.  This set also features players on multiple cards in the base set and Robin was given 5.  So much like my series with his 2008 Sterling base cards I'm going feature all of Robin's 2005 Baseball Heroes cards in a row.   Every base card in this set is paralleled by multiple color parallels and those parallels have relic, autograph, and relic autograph parallels.  That's a lot of parallels.

Ahem.  Let's get on to the post.  Robin's base cards in the set are #61-65.  Each card celebrates a different aspect of Robin's career.  

Card #61 celebrates Robin's second 4 hit game in the 1982 World Series.
