Mike Cameron 1999 Leaf Lineage or 2002 Donruss
Who: Outfielder Mike Cameron

Team: Cincinnati Reds

Card: 1999 Leaf Lineage or 2002 Donruss thing

Acquired: TTM 3/3 1/16/2009 (7 days)

Comments: Mike only played one season for the Reds... the nearly-magical 1999 season. Afterwards, he was shipped off to Seattle in the Junior trade. Since then, he's been a pretty darn good player for the Mariners, Mets, Padres and Brewers.

What I cannot figure out is this card. It's says 1999 Leaf Lineage on the front. The copyright on the back is 2002 Donruss. I guess Donruss released this "Lineage" card in 2002? Seems pointless. Oh well, it's my only Mike Cameron card with his as a Red. I'll take it.

Mike's an awesome signer. I got this card and two others back in just seven days. Seven days!

With Donruss out of the game in 99 and 2k and they tried to make up for it with "retro" and other cards like Lineage were they did not have players on cards for those years and highlights.

Ah! Thank you. It just didn't make sense form the information on the back of the card. You guys are brilliant.
