Rodney's Cardboard:2020 Optic Signature Series

Todays Rodney Hampton comes to me as quite a shock.

It was shocking to find out that Panini first of all included Rodney in Optic for the first time ever, but it was also extremely surprising they didn't do parallels for it. NONE.

So this was it. Just one card, a chromed card that had no parallels.

 

The back of the card was not that exciting.

Thanks goes out to my buddy Shane from Cheap Wax fame who helped me land this one.

Rodney's Cardboard:2019 Legacy Black Printing Plate

Awhile back, I put up a post from a trade that Gavin from Baseball Card Breakdown and myself did and mentioned there was one more card to go in that post and that it was the centerpiece of the trade.  Today, is the day I finally reveal it.

Introducing the latest printing plate to my Rodney Hampton collection,

This one comes from Panini's Legacy collection.

I always find these newer plates hard to find so adding these when I can is great. Gavin seems to always have luck finding Hampton plates.

Thanks again Gavin for the trade!

Rodney's Cardboard:1997 Pro Line Printing Plate

I do have one more printing plate to show off that we will save for another time as I think we need to break this up some. Today, we are showing off a 1997 Pro Line Printing Plate I was able to acquire thanks to a trade again with my buddy Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday fame.

 

I believe this was one of last products in the run of Pro Line in the 90's and what was a great run of it. Their on-card autographs were amazing.

Thanks again to Shane for another great piece. Appreciate it as always!

Rodney's Cardboard:1995 Classic NFL Experience Back Plate

Back to front, front to back. Printing plates can be fun.

I don't see many back plates today, but I own a few from the 90's.

This is the back plate of another plate I recently showed off on here.

 

Once again, there isn't much to show on the opposite side other than a plain sheet of metal plate.

Thanks again to Shane for the addition as he has really helped me along with these. As we will see with another next week, so stay tuned!
