recap the repack

out of boredom (is there any other reason?) i picked up a fairfield 100 card repack recently.  it's pretty cool to pull a pete rose out of a pack in 2013.
even if he's rocking the double chin.

here are the cards that i was dealt, so to speak.

1988 fleer bill ripken - one year away from f*ck face.  can someone explain to me why beckett referred to the 1989 fleer bill ripken card as 'rick face'?  when i saw that in the price guide back then, i assumed that they switched out a 'd' for the 'r'.  wouldn't it have made more sense to say 'puck face'? or 'duck face'?  whatever.  here's the 1988 card with a harmless number 3 on his bat knob.

I don't believe there are any good cards in those repackaged deals. They claim it, but has anyone ever seen, heard or witnessed a "GOOD" card pulled from one?

Nice Rose. As for the Ripken question, I've been wondering the same thing for years.
