Juan Samuel Autographed 1993 Score Select #237 Kansas City Royals Card

Add a great first-year Select issue from Juan Samuels brief Kansas City tenure with this 1993 Score Select #237 card featuring Samuel with the Kansas City Royals, personally autographed by the three-time MLB All-Star. Samuel is correctly cataloged as card #237 with Kansas City.

The 1993 Select set marked the debut of Scores new Select baseball brand. Positioned between the company's standard Score product and its higher-end Pinnacle line, Select was designed for the growing premium, mid-price card market. The inaugural release contains 405 cards and was distributed in one series through 15-card hobby and retail packs as well as larger 28-card SuperPacks.

The design helped distinguish Select from the regular Score line. Cards feature full-color photography surrounded by green borders, with the Select branding and player identification incorporated into the front. The backs include another color photograph along with the team logo, biographical information and career statistics.

Samuels #237 is especially interesting within his extensive card run because it documents his brief Kansas City Royals tenure following several seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers. His Royals cards represent a much smaller portion of his career than his numerous Phillies and Dodgers issues, making them a nice change of team for collectors building a comprehensive Samuel autograph collection.

The inaugural Select set also has lasting hobby appeal thanks to a checklist that includes stars such as Ken Griffey Jr., Barry Bonds, Cal Ripken Jr., Nolan Ryan and Mike Piazza, along with the important Derek Jeter #360 rookie card.
