The basics: Darryl Hamilton makes a colorful appearance for his only stop in the 1993 Upper Deck set.
Card thoughts: Peace! I really like the close-up candid shots in this set. I zoomed in on Hamilton's sunglasses to see if I could read anything from the reflection. I see a ball field and there is some sort of figure off to the right, not sure if it's the photographer.
Backs are important in '93 UD: A nice bunting scene in County Stadium. Hamilton was just emerging as a key player for the Brewers in the early '90s. After 1995, he'd play for several teams, finishing up with the Mets. ... This is the second straight card of a player who died prematurely.
More from '93: On this date in 1993, the movie thriller "Malice," starring Alec Baldwin and Nicole Kidman, debuted at No. 1 in the U.S.
Not usually a fan of the zoomed in photo, but it works on this card.
ReplyDeleteMalice was an early work of Aaron Sorkin, his second screenplay after A Few Good Men.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that Hamilton died prematurely. Another sad case.
ReplyDeleteNot to be sophomoric…but is that a booger I see?
