Card of the Day: 2002 Donruss Studio Jeff Cirillo “Flag” parallel
I spent about an hour this morning searching through my collection for the 1991 Score card featuring the American Flag. Figured that’d be an appropriate card to post today since it is Independence Day. But I could not find one. Instead I did uncovered this. Have you ever seen one of these before? I pulled this from a pack in 2002 while I was living in Salem, Oregon. It’s a Jeff Cirillo 2002 Donruss Studio card, but there is a silver foil American Flag printed on the bottom left, and the card is serial numbered on the back 15/43. I seem to remember a discussion on the Beckett Message Boards about a year ago, but the details of the thread escape me. Something about the cards initially inserted into packs as some sort of redemption. I searched the Beckett Price Guide and even my annual (which is now five years old) but the parallel set is not listed anywhere. Anyhow, given the fact that this card features the American Flag, it was suitable to posted today. Happy Fourth of July.
