Juan Samuel Autographed 1990 Donruss #53 New York Mets Card

Add an interesting short-tenure team issue to your collection with this 1990 Donruss #53 Juan Samuel card featuring Samuel with the New York Mets, personally autographed by the three-time MLB All-Star.

Samuel is correctly listed as a New York Met on card #53 in the 1990 Donruss set. The card is a great snapshot of a very brief chapter in his career, as Samuel spent only the second half of the 1989 season in New York before moving on to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Samuel arrived in New York on June 18, 1989, when the Philadelphia Phillies traded him to the Mets in exchange for Lenny Dykstra, Roger McDowell and a player to be named later, Tom Edens. His stay with the Mets lasted just a few months. On December 20, 1989, New York traded Samuel to Los Angeles for Mike Marshall and Alejandro Pea.

There is also an interesting variation element to the 1990 Donruss set. Samuel #53 can be found with different pack and factory-set border/copyright variations, including differences involving the punctuation in the 1989 LEAF, INC. copyright line on the reverse. These subtle differences provide another collecting angle for enthusiasts who enjoy Donruss variations.
