Barry Larkin
Year: 1989
Brand: Donruss All-Stars
Card number: 47
In 1989, Donruss issued a number of different sets including a 60 card All-Stars set. The design of the All-Stars set was similar to that of the regular '89 Donruss base set with the obvious exception of the stars on the back, the All-Star logo on the front, and the All-Star centric write-up. Donruss did use a different photo of Barry for the two sets (which I appreciate). I also prefer the colors of the All-Star set to the ugly purple and black of the regular set. However, despite this card being a slight improvement over Donruss' 1989 flagship efforts, it's still one ugly card. Upper Deck couldn't have picked a better year to enter the market based on most of the "other" companies offerings in '89... It wouldn't take much to impress collectors at that point in time!
