What is the difference between Fleer Tradition and Tradition Glossy?

The Tradition Glossy subset features cards with a distinct high-gloss finish, contrasting with the standard matte finish of the base Fleer Tradition cards. This variation offers a different visual presentation and texture for collectors.

Is Justin Thompson a rookie card in this set?

No, the 2000 Fleer Tradition Justin Thompson card #145 is not his rookie card. It was released in 2000, well after his MLB debut, making it a standard base or parallel card from his career.

Why do collectors seek the Glossy parallel?

Collectors often seek the Glossy parallel for its unique aesthetic appeal and the challenge of completing specific subsets within the Fleer Tradition set. The glossy finish provides a distinct look compared to the standard base cards.
