Ichiro card #36 2006 Fleer Ultra #80

• Fantastic shot of Ichiro about to make contact with the baseball.  Swings don't get much better than his.
• Bio on the back:  "...the superstar outfielder also established a Mariners record with 12 triples in 2005."   This kind of surprised me, as the M's have had quite a few speedy players in their 40+ year history.  
• 5 copies of this card currently on COMC, ranging from 69 cents to 75 cents.   The Gold Medallion version also had a copy for 69 cents.  The key word in that 2nd sentence is "had".
• Career game #36 was a pretty good one for Ichiro.  He went 4 for 6 with a 2B, 3B, a RBI and 3 runs scored as the Mariners beat their expansion cousins 11-7.  He raised his batting average 11 points to .351 and his OPS went up 36 points to .846.
