Darth Brooks Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 I decided to make more card replicas, this time instead of just Topps, it's the major card companies of 1991. Why 1991? It was the breakout year for companies getting into the business. Topps of course, but they had been joined by Pro Set, Fleer, Upper Deck, Pacific, Score and Topps subsidiary Bowman, along with side sets like Topps Stadium Club, Pro Set Platinum, Fleer Ultra and others. The field got very crowded and some of these companies would drop out in a few years. I'm going to make templates for the companies using draft picks & free agents. I'm using Viking players but I'll take requests.

tripleprince Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I have a question.. on the late 70's, early 80's cards, was the layout on the reverse of the cards all the same, or were there multiple different layouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Brooks Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 I'd have to dig out my sets (or you can look at checkoutmycards ) but I suspect that each year had a certain set way of arranging front to back. From what I've seen of TOPPS it was probably the same every year. I kinda ignored that when making these which is why they may vary a little.

tripleprince Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks. checkoutmycards.com has shown me everything I wanted to know.I'm creating a set of vintage-look cards for my American football team in the UK, basing them on the 1982 Topps cards.

OnWis97 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 These are really nice...especially the backs...you really captured those little fun fact drawings. PS, I noticed the back of Kluwe's has "K" instead of "P" Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

Darth Brooks Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 Doing a couple more cards. With these two I was waiting for preseason because I could find photos I liked.First one is Greg Jennings. Classy player on a classy looking card. Pros Set Platinum were really nice looking cards. They weren't meant as a "main set" but as an alternative with more emphasis on a more artistic design.Platinum_Jennings by Darth_Brooks_, on FlickrFleer cards, at least in 1990 and 1991 were ugly. The '91 set were printed on a flat cardstock that looked washed out and dull. You can make your own judgements as to why Cassel is on here.1990 Fleer Matt Cassell by Darth_Brooks_, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Brooks Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 That was from a nighttime practice they had August 4th. You can find the set on the Vikings website (8th day of practice)Dunno if you can hotlink to them but here's an attemptand Josh Robinson from the same night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Brooks Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm continuing my way through 1991. Next is Wild Card. I'm convinced they designed these in Corel Draw. The text effect is not something that Photoshop does not do easily. It's a clumsy effort at a time when Photoshop made good design stunningly easy. Player is a Dolphins player who got clowned in a preseason game. Dude will probably get better when he actually has a chance to practice and play in his proper position, but for the moment it's infamy enough for this set.91 Wild Card by Darth_Brooks_, on FlickrMy god were they an ugly.

ADW77 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I always liked the 1989 Pro Set design for some reason. Still do to this day. FDCO Fonts NFL Re-Design Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
