There are only a few cards that, when I first saw them, I was like “I need this”. This card was one of them.

I loved the 2013/2014 Oakland Athletics–this despite the fact that they were a miserable team to try and get autographs from. Donaldson and Cespedes were huge cogs in that offensive machine, and both were favorites of mine. I especially had a thing for Cespedes. This card was perfect.

The only problem is that its a “book” card, so storage is a real hassle. For what its worth these cards don’t scan well, so you can’t really appreciate how nice the autographs are. Unlike some Panini issues, there is no bleeding or bubbling.

Very cool card.
