Wow. Great collection of Ichiros. The 1993 BBM is super high up there on my wantlist. Just crossed of his 1993 Tomy card. One day the BBM will be mine.
I think the 1994 card is by far the coolest looking card ever made, front and back, for any sport. That 1995 BBM card is incredibly rare. Anyone have one for sale? Thanks!
R Laughton--thank you! Much appreciated. Funny how right when I start looking for 1995 BBM Ichiros, some guy lists that he has more than 10 (ungraded) for sale at $12 each on EBAY. Could those be counterfeits? There's no way anyone has that many of those. Does anyone have a ballpark figure of what the print run was like for the 1994 BBMs and the 1995s? Thanks in advance!
The only counterfeit Ichiro cards I've ever been warned about are fake 1993 BBM and 1994 Calbee Hokkaido cards. I'd be surprised if someone went to the trouble to fake the 1995 cards. I don't know the print runs for those years but I don't think either is super scarce.

@Fuji - I need to get a better version of the 1993 one someday - this one is mis-cut.

A lot of us use proxy bidding sites. There are several 1995 BBMs for a sale now on Yahoo Auctions.

Thanks for your prompt response, NPB Card Guy. Much appreciated.
