Juan Samuel Autographed 1992 Leaf Black Gold #125 Los Angeles Dodgers Card

Add one of the more attractive early full-set parallels to your Juan Samuel collection with this 1992 Leaf Black Gold #125 card featuring Samuel with the Los Angeles Dodgers, personally autographed by the three-time MLB All-Star. Samuel #125 is confirmed as part of the Black Gold set and is cataloged with Los Angeles.

The 1992 Leaf Black Gold set is a complete 528-card parallel of the regular 1992 Leaf release, issued across two 264-card series. Rather than being sold as a separate conventional base set, Black Gold cards were inserted one per foil pack of 1992 Leaf, meaning collectors attempting to assemble the entire parallel had to chase all 528 cards individually. Beckett considers it noteworthy as one of the hobby's early pack-distributed parallel sets.

The Black Gold treatment gives Samuel's familiar #125 a dramatically different appearance from the regular Leaf card. Instead of the standard issue's silver-colored face, the parallel features a black card face accented by a gold foil inner border, while the horizontal reverse uses a gold background rather than silver.

Samuel's #125 falls within Series One (#1-264). The Black Gold version makes an especially nice companion to his regular 1992 Leaf #125 and is a more distinctive choice for an autograph because of its contrasting black-and-gold presentation.

The card comes from the final season of Samuel's Dodgers tenure, following his 1991 All-Star campaign with Los Angeles. For a comprehensive Samuel collection, the Black Gold parallel also represents an interesting point in hobby history as manufacturers began moving toward the extensive parallel structures that would become commonplace later in the 1990s.
