Unfinished Cup:1995-96 Flair Hardwood Leaders

I was 12 years old when I fell in love with Fleer 1995, a product hated by most collectors.

I collected baseball, football and basketball that included one of my favorite inserts of the three, Flair Hardwood Leaders.

They were issued one-per-pack but were some of the coolest cards I had seen at the time with its court floor background, thick cardstock and high gloss. It was like no other insert I had seen at the time.

I remember specifically going into Ames, buying a few packs every few weeks just to try and chase the set. I especially wanted the Jordan but didn't have any good luck. That had to wait until I was an adult.

With that being said, I am only four away from finally completing what I had started. I need the following cards,

12, 20, 21, 23

The final four will help me finish this set I have been chasing all of these years.

Do you have what I need? Comment below or send me an email at sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com

Thanks and hope everyone has a magnificent Monday.

Unfinished Cup:1995-96 Flair Hardwood Leader

I have my coffee, my cards and my laptop fired up.

You know what to do...repeat as me and let's do some Cards Over Coffee!!!

*takes a sip*

I have found these Unfinished Cups to be helpful for my set chases over the years. Not everyone of these has led to me some help, but some have.

And every little help counts. I know I don't like leaving anything unfinished, coffee or cards.

So, I plan on posting these to see if any of you can help me finish these sets up. It also helps give me some posts on here as well though I don't always like doing post fillers.

Today's set I am ever-so close on finishing with only four cards remaining of the twenty-seven needed.

 

1995-96 Fleer basketball had a one-per-pack insert called Flair Hardwood Leader. 1995 Fleer included one-per-pack Flair inserts into their base products across multiple sports that year. I think it was a way to fully introduce the Flair product line.

The Hardwood Leader design was my favorite one. Especially since it felt like a high-end card product at the time with thick glossy cardstock.

I have been chasing this set ever since and have narrowed it down to just needing 12, 20, 21 and 23 for a full set completion.

If any of you have them, please let me know! Either comment below or drop me an email to sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com.

Thanks and hope everyone has a great Sunday.
