Vince Coleman 1987 Donruss Highlights
As you know, I am a really big fan of baseball cards that celebrate the history of the sport. And they can be found in many different versions between most of the major-brand card companies.
For a few years in the mid-1980’s, Donruss issued a pretty sweet set of cards titled ‘Highlights’. The set celebrated the feats accomplished during the prior baseball season, and the design was the same as the best set with just a different color scheme.
This is Vince Coleman’s card from the 1987 Donruss Highlights set.
The card celebrates Coleman collecting 100+ steals in the first three seasons of his career – 1985, 1986, 1987.
The card is one of the best in the set – and the feat is unheard of; not even done by the great Rickey Henderson or Lou Brock…
Atta Boy Vince!!
Pretty amazing! Bet he wishes he would have stayed a Cardinal! Hed probably be a Hall Of Famer today!
McGee-Fan51- It’s sad to see how quickly he declined once he left STL. All good things eventually come to an end…
I hope you mean the Cardinals HOF and not the HOF in Cooperstown, because that career OBP is atrocious for a lead off guy.
Matt- I don’t think that he’s kidding.
You thought I was a homer! lol
