Card #149: 1989 Baseball Card Magazine #58

YEAR: 1989
BRAND: Baseball Card Magazine
SET: Baseball Card Magazine
NUMBER: 58
SUBSET: Rookie Stars of 1989
TEAM: San Diego Padres

This was a throw-in to a larger Red Sox trade.  These cards were attached to pages of one of the earlier baseball card price guides.  I was aware that some price guides had cards but did not pick any up for some reason.  I am regretting that now and have picked up a number of them for both collections.  I love the photo here of Alomar over his shoulder.  The card design is based on the 1959 Topps design and improved moreso by the fact that this is the rookie card design.  This is the first Padres card I have gotten since card #63.
