The Just cards are not blank outlines of generic players? Maybe they did this at some point but I have a ton of their sets and auto cards and they are excellent photographs of the players in unedited uniforms. We must be speaking of 2 different things.

No worries Greg!

The Just card auto looks like this that some (not me) also consider an auto but I would say its xrc. They created no real photo card of Cabrera in 2000 other than this Mystery card I know of.



The Royal Rookies is the same at bat as the Topps and comes in auto #0/4950 or unsigned versions. I would consider this an RC due to the pro uni. However, I understand that many do not as other players are in minor unis and the card text could be read as minor referring.

I don't think the Royal Rookies card counts. It's not a licensed card. As you can see, while it is the same photo as the 2000 Topps Traded, they've been forced to edit out the marlins logo on the batting helmet.

I'm guessing the jersey is obscured just enough that it didn't require editing.

Maybe Kevin Brown, 1987 Donruss. Think it was his only RC.
