Barry Larkin Collection 573: 1990 Star - #3

Barry Larkin
Year:  1990
Brand:  Star
Card number:  3

This is the third card in the 11 card Barry Larkin set produced by Star back in 1990.  For this card, we get a look at Barry Larkin's All-Star statistics throughout his career (which spanned a whopping two All-Star game selections in which he only played in one game).  Even worse, in that one game Larkin went 0-2 with a strikeout.  Not an impressive All-Star game resume at that point in time...and it does sort of make you wonder why Star decided to use a card "spot" in the set on Larkin's middling All-Star game results. 

I will say that I do like the chosen image for this card - and once again I have to say that I'm happy that Star went ahead and used a different image for each of the cards in the set (something other companies have not done when producing similar sorts of sets).

  1. That is an odd choice to highlight on a card, especially a future superstar like Larkin.
