Barry Larkin
Year: 2001
Brand: Upper Deck Vintage
Card number: 322
I'm in the midst of scanning and writing about a number of different cards produced by Upper Deck in 2001. For the most part, I feel like I've been railing against most of the sets - but even Upper Deck struck gold once in a while back in '01. The Upper Deck Vintage set is a glorious throwback inspired set (clearly a rip-off of 1963 Topps but that doesn't bother me as much as it might other people).
Instead, I choose to focus on how great this particular set is. The card fronts are spectacular - a giant close-up plus an action shot inset, easy to read player and team name, and no foil to be found! The card backs are also quite nice - notice the career statistics!
All things considered, this is one of my favorite Larkin cards in 2001, not just from Upper Deck but from all brands!
