- Just 5 versions of this card to chase, compared to Topps Tek from the same year, that's nothing. This is serial #'d 442/9799.
- The design seems as if Thome hit the ball and it exploded, giving off kind of a shimmering light effect. Interesting...
- Bio on the back: "Who is the only other AL third baseman since 1954 other than Jim - who did it in 1996 - to hit .300 with 30 HRs and 100 RBI in a season?" Interesting that the answer is on card #133 of the set. I had to go to COMC to look up the answer. It was George Brett in 1985.
