Card #43: 1992 Upper Deck Fanfest #12

YEAR: 1992
BRAND: Upper Deck
SET: Fanfest
NUMBER: 12
SUBSET: All Star Heroes
TEAM: Cleveland Indians

This was the first card of Alomar I had gotten that I felt was truly a premium card.  Available in boxed set form and ultra-glossy, this was the rare oddball that was also a premium card.  I do remember getting the card.  My friend, who collected Jose Canseco, and I went to the baseball card store and saw these cards.  They were selling for a couple of bucks each, and I decided to splurge for it.  Hey, I was 11 and it was rare for me to spend more than 50 cents on a single card.  This was a favorite card of mine for awhile.
