1991 Line Drive AAA, Terry Clark



#607 Terry Clark

Here is the third and final Terry Clark card that I got signed in Omaha this summer. Terry is the pitching coach for the Round Rock Express and he signed this card prior to a game in July.

I really have nothing else to say about Terry that I hadn't already said in the previous two posts. But, I will say this:

First- I love how well the blue Sharpie came out over the red jersey. The signature just pops off the card.

Second- I think it is funny that Line Drive dubbed this set as "pre-rookie" even though Terry and yesterdays post, Robbie Wine, had actual rookie cards in base sets in the late '80s. Maybe 'pre-rookie" is not the best moniker for a AAA set.

And Last- If I did not know any better, I would think that Terry's name is Ty Clark, based off his signature.

One Last Thing- Terry is still rocking the mustache.

  1. I love those Line Drive AA and AAA cards. Especially for autographs.

  2. "Pre-Rookie" was about as accurate a description for those Line Drive sets as "Pro Debut" is for the current Topps minor league offerings.

    Oh well, they're still fun cards.

  3. That sig does pop! I need to get to some Round Rock and Frisco games next season.
