Barry Larkin
Year: 1997
Brand: Upper Deck SPx
Card number: SPX19
The 1997 Upper Deck SPx set is another set that I find confusing, mostly because of the parallels. In fact, it took until I had this base card to realize that the other SPx Larkin that I owned was a parallel. Luckily, it turns out that Upper Deck made the parallels all have a black and white photograph on the back of the card (with the base cards having a color photo such as you see here). I have more information on the parallels in the set on my post showing off a Steel version of this card.
As for this card, it's nice enough I guess. The card is die-cut and uses Upper Deck's holoview technology. In fact, according to Baseballcardpedia, this is the final set that used the holoview technology. I don't know why that is but it's an interesting bit of trivia nonetheless!
