Michael Barrett Autographed 1999 SkyBox Molten Metal #119 Montreal Expos Signed Card
Website / eBay Description:
Add a signed card of future Silver Slugger catcher Michael Barrett with this 1999 SkyBox Molten Metal #119 Montreal Expos issue.
This card comes from the innovative 1999 SkyBox Molten Metal set, one of the hobby's most visually striking premium releases of the late 1990s. Printed on 24-point foil-board cardstock, the 150-card set is divided into three distinct subsets: Metal Smiths, Heavy Metal, and Supernatural. Michael Barrett's #119 is part of the Heavy Metal subset, making it a tougher pull than the standard Metal Smiths cards and a favorite among collectors of premium SkyBox products.
Selected by the Montreal Expos with the 28th overall pick in the first round of the 1995 MLB Draft, Michael Barrett went on to enjoy an 11-year Major League career with the Montreal Expos, Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres, and Toronto Blue Jays. Originally drafted as a shortstop, Barrett successfully transitioned to catcher in the minor leagues and developed into one of the National League's premier offensive backstops. He finished his career with 98 home runs, 424 RBIs, a .263 batting average, and earned the 2005 National League Silver Slugger Award.
Issued during Barrett's emergence as one of the Expos' top young players, this Heavy Metal card showcases him before the finest years of his Major League career. Its premium foil-board construction and distinctive late-1990s SkyBox design make it one of his most attractive mainstream issues.
