The case

Why this card matters.

This card received a 69.5 overall Hobby Score.

The 1990 Fleer Update Frank Thomas Rookie Card is easily the most overlooked among his mainstream rookie issues. Part of the late-season 'Update' box set, this card didn't circulate in standard wax packs and lacked the visual flair or notoriety of his other rookie offerings. The design is clean but forgettable, and collector demand has always been tepid at best.
