Description: DESCRIPTION: This is a 1989 Pro Set #494 Barry Sanders Rookie card graded BGS 9 MINT. Nice card of this Hall of Famer. I never got to see Jim Brown or Walter Payton play, but I did get to see Barry Sanders. He was nothing short of amazing. His quickness, with start, stop, cuts. He just plain embarrassed defenses including the Packers. He decided to retire while still in his prime! He still sits #4 in All Time NFL Rushing Yards. Wonder where he would be in the record books had he played another 4-5 years which he easily could have. Unfortunately the Lions were like an anchor around his neck during that era. Barry's awards list is almost embarrassing, he was NFL Rookie of the year in 1989, 2x NFL Offensive Player of the Year, NFL MVP in 1997, 4x NFL Rushing Leader, 10x Pro Bowl, 6x All Pro, 1990s NFL All Decade Team, NFL ALL TIME TEAM, and NFL Hall of Fame inductee. Even with his early retirement the NFL Records that he STILL HOLDS are obscene. I'll name a few: Most Season with 1300+ Rushing Yards=9, Most Seasons with 1400+ Rushing Yards=7, Most Seasons with 1500+ Rushing Yards=5, Most Consecutive games with 100+ Rushing Yards=14, Career 120+ Rushing Games=51, Career 150+ Rushing Games=25, etc. etc. CONDITION: As graded SHIPPING: All items are shipped with a minimum of bubble envelope security Combined shipping for multiple items is available Specific/alternate shipping options are available upon request Insurance is included with all shipments Contact me if you have any questions
