  2. Awesome. The graphics in these cards are so different from anything I have seen before... what a great idea for a collection! (and BTW, John Gall is one of my favorite book designers)

  3. One of the things I regret not doing while in Japan is going to a baseball game. Sigh... One of my friends went to one & told me what I missed. Some day perhaps. Great images I love the tones. My favorite has to be the Hawks one. Thanks!

  4. I collected Japanese baseball cards as kid living in Tokyo. This was in the late 80's and, by that time, they looked like the cookie cutter American ones. I have some fond memories of rooting for the Giants at the Tokyo Dome...

  5. Love it. Favorite is the pitcher with the big star and crazy #'s leafs designs all around him.

    I lived in Japan when I was younger, I loved baseball but never got into the Japanese game. Wish I had...
