6 in 30: Collector's Choice

I'm late to the party, but I just had to take advantage of Dinged Corners' neat idea. In case you've been under a rock for the past couple of weeks, the premise goes like this. Take a binder off the shelf, open it up, and pull 6 cards out that make you happy in 30 seconds or less. The binder I chose was 1994 Collector's Choice.

#221 - Greg Olson



This might be the only card in the history of the hobby that features a four wheeler more prominently than the player himself.

#117 - Ken Griffey Jr.



Upper Deck always made sure that Griffey had a sweet photo in their sets... this was no exception.

#114 - Mark Grace



I'm a big fan of horizontal cards, and this photo takes full advantage of the space provided. Love the ivy in the background, too.

#168 - John Kruk



Kruk's mullet and beer belly are in full display here as he makes what looks to be an awkward slide into home plate.

#189 - Pedro Martinez



Greg Maddux is to the Cubs as Pedro Martinez is to the Dodgers. Sorry, Night Owl.

#145 - Danny Jackson



From the looks of this card it looks like Danny finishes his delivery on his hands and knees. Great angle.

And there you have it, folks. 6 in 30 seconds.
