There are two things I love seeing on a baseball card, sunglasses and players signing autographs. And I give bonus points to cards that clearly depict an era. When all three of those conditions collide, you get the perfect storm of an early ’90s baseball card:
BOOM! Oversized wrap-around shades? Check. Player signing? Check, and on something that looks to be a waiter’s tablet. High front cap with mullet sprouting in the back? Most definitely, check. Got a pen, anything at all to write on, and want an autograph? Rick Honeycutt will happily oblige.

Wow. This card is the McShizzle on so many levels.
I also like the “I’m too f’ing cool to do this, but my agents says it’ll help me bag some babes” expression.
