Card #38: 1991 Ultra #105

YEAR: 1991
BRAND: Fleer
SET: Ultra
NUMBER: 105
SUBSET: NA
TEAM: Cleveland Indians

Poor Fleer.  After Score, Upper Deck, and Leaf all had successful premium brands enter the market in successive years, Fleer decided to jump on the bandwagon and release their own premium set.  But they were blown out of the water by Topps's foray into the premium scene, Stadium Club.  Still, Ultra presented some nice, crisp photography and nice full-color backs.  I like this card of Alomar going back for a foul pop-up.  The picture appears again later in my collection, but this card did it best.
