Throughout the many, many, many years of baseball cards, we’ve seen many, many, many players, many, many, many designs, and many, many, many, many, many, many, many different photos. However, I don’t think I’m ever come across a Christmas-related baseball card. Sure, baseball and Christmas are about as opposite as you can get, but it surprises me that I’ve yet to see a player wearing a Santa cap, or a player with one of their bats wrapped up as a present, or something cheesy that you’d find in 1990 Score.
I’m presenting a challenge to everyone out in the blogosphere. Be my Star of Bethlehem tonight; show me the way to a Christmas-themed baseball card. A link, a picture, anything. I’m just dying to see one. Here’s your reward when you do.
Mrs. Claus, meow.

Does that meet your standards for a Christmas themed baseball card?
Oh wow, talk about a dream come true. I would love to own some of those... I've never seen them pop up anywhere. How obscure are they?
ReplyDeletePretty rare I think. Can't even remember when or where I got this one but I've never seen another.
ReplyDeleteThe first year of Pro Set they put out a Santa card.
