Page 12, Gaudy and/or Busy Designs - But Darnit - I Like 'Em !


1995 Select Certified Gold Team #2
Sorta looks like the Han Solo carbonite scene in Star Wars, but dangit - I really like this card! So much nicer in real life than any scan or picture can capture.


2004 UD Diamond Collection Gold Honors #'d to 50
Despite breaking the graphic design rule about keeping things simple - this works - at least IMHO. Much nicer in person.


1998 Pacific Crown Collection #5
Too much foil. Too elaborate a design for such a small space. Cluttered, loud, and garish. And yet... <lol>

This is also one of the very few times you'll ever hear me praise any Pacific product in any way, shape, or form. IMO, their designs were typically sub-par, akin to something produced by the staff of a high school yearbook committee.


1998 Circa Thunder Rave Reviews #14RR
Straight out of the Victorian-age book of design. Way too funky for today's moden 'hiphop' asthetics. And yet...<g>
