Travel back in time with me to 1998. On a warm night in July the Modesto A's played host to the Lancaster JetHawks. Thanks to Krier's Cards & Comics it was the Team Set Giveaway night. The first 1,000 fans got a set.
On the team were future big leaguers such as: Jeff DaVanon, Nathan Haynes, Cody McKay, Adam Piatt, Carl Dale, Kevin Gregg, Tim Hudson, and Luis Vizcaino.
That was fifteen years ago. Now you have to get them on ebay. About $17 delivered.
I found the yearbook in the free bin at the McKay used bookstore in Chattanooga earlier this year. I don't have, nor do I want, the cards.
Nice free bin find. I wouldn't pay $17 for the set... but if I found it in somebody's clearance bin, I'd grab it for the early Hudson card.
