Comments: I started the
Gwynn portrait run in 2000 with the 1984 Donruss issue first buying
a PSA 8, upgrading to a PSA 9, and then winning a PSA 10 on eBay
in March, 2006. I also had a Gary Carter, Don Sutton, and a Don
Mattingly from the same issue. There's lots of head shots in this
set. In order to diversify the collection a little, I looked for
another portrait card of Gwynn and settled on the 1992 Bowman issue.
This set will always be near to my heart as early on in my collecting
I was a Rookie Card enthusiast. I bought stacks and stacks of 1992
RC singles to sell off when the players made it big - did pretty
well. In November, 2007 I won this PSA 10 on eBay. |
