A more limited, upgraded version of his standard Topps issue, this Kal Daniels autographed 1988 Topps Tiffany #622 Cincinnati Reds card features one of Cincinnatis most talented young hitters of the late 1980s. Topps Tiffany cards reproduced the regular Topps checklist with a higher-quality presentation, including a glossy front surface, brighter appearance and premium card stock.
Unlike standard 1988 Topps cards produced for widespread distribution, the 1988 Topps Tiffany set was issued exclusively as a factory set in substantially smaller quantities. The combination of the Tiffany treatment and Daniels autograph makes this a particularly appealing variation for collectors seeking more distinctive examples from his Cincinnati Reds card run.
Daniels entered 1988 following an outstanding 1987 season, when he batted .334 with 26 home runs, 64 RBI and 26 stolen bases in only 108 games. He also recorded a .429 on-base percentage and .617 slugging percentage, demonstrating an impressive combination of average, power, speed and plate discipline.
He remained highly productive in 1988, batting .291 with 18 home runs, 64 RBI and 27 stolen bases while posting a .397 on-base percentage. Across the 1987 and 1988 seasons, Daniels accumulated 44 home runs and 53 stolen bases despite playing only 248 games.
Although injuries ultimately limited Daniels to seven Major League seasons, he finished with a .285 batting average, .382 on-base percentage, 104 home runs and 87 stolen bases. With its more limited factory-set distribution and upgraded Tiffany finish, the 1988 Topps Tiffany #622 is an appealing addition for Cincinnati Reds collectors, Kal Daniels fans, Topps Tiffany collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
