The voting ended for Round 1E yesterday so let's take a look at the results and then move on to Round 1F.
As you can see by the above poll numbers, it was a clean sweep for 1991 Upper Deck. The Silver Slugger card finished first while the regular base card locked up second place. The other two cards only mustered three votes between them - combined they'd still miss a tie for second by two votes.
Now, on to the next round! As always, the poll is on the right.
1992 Donruss Triple Play:
The 1992 Donruss Triple Play set looks like it was designed using a beta version of Microsoft PowerPoint. I don't think that's a compliment exactly as no one that I know of uses PowerPoint to design baseball cards. Of course, just because it's not my favorite (seriously, red fading to yellow fading back to red, yuck) doesn't mean you guys don't love it.
1992 Fleer All-Star:
The 1991 Fleer All-Star card ended up winning it's round (back in round 1D) - will the '92 All-Star version also rule its group? If I had to wager, I'd guess that the card finishes in the top 2...but I said that about the Diamond King card...and we all know how that ended (not well for Donruss).
1992 Score base:
Back in the late 80s and early 90s, Score managed to create some of the nicest designs with some of the worst color schemes. A green half-border with a blue background for text looks terrible with the Reds' uniform (and logo). On the plus side though, the '92 Score card does feature the running man logo on the front - always a plus in my book!
1992 Score All-Star:
This round features the first "different" type of Larkin card in the Experiment. Up until the '92 Score All-Star card, all of the Larkin cards featured nothing more than an image (or multiple images) of Larkin. The All-Star card doesn't feature a photo but rather a caricature. Will the uniqueness of the card be enough to convince voters to choose Score or will a more classic design win out?

LOVE those Score All-Star cards. Reminds me of my big head Will Clark t-shirt I had back in the day. I wore that thing until it had too many holes to wear in public.
ReplyDeletei liked the last round's vote options better than this round...
