The 1997 Fleer Sports Illustrated set is a fun set to bust (if you like base cards). The base set is divided up into a variety of subsets and it's a very colorful set overall. Given today's insert laden packs, I think I actually prefer the simplicity of sets like the '97 SI set. It also doesn't hurt that the photography is top notch (since the photos were all Sports Illustrated photographs)!
Pack 4:
28. Ken Griffey, Jr.
75. Greg Maddux
93. Mike Lieberthal
130. Andy Pettitte
169. Barry Bonds
Great Shots: Frank Thomas
First, the good news for my set: I needed the awesome Griffey, the bunting Maddux, the run-of-the-mill Pettitte, AND the cover story Bonds! I can't complain at all about getting four new cards for my set (out of 5 base cards). As for the mini posters, I'm doing as well there so far - in fact, I haven't pulled a single new poster for my collection yet (but the box is still in its infancy so there's plenty of hope yet)!
