You have to give it to Fleer for trying something different with this product. Every card in the 2003 Fleer Hardball set is in the shape of a circle. I actually really liked this product because of its unique design. There are two memorabilia cards per box plus a ton of inserts. Hardball didn’t last very long and Fleer didn’t make any other versions. I would like to see more cards like this in today’s products. I remember pulling a Nomar Garciaparra jersey from a few packs.

These look cool, but the tough thing about oddly-shaped cards is that they’re tough to store.
I actually pulled a Bonds auto of this product back then. What at one time could’ve been a sweet pull, I felt dirty just holding it.
I got abot half of a box and pulled Mike Schmidt Round Numbers, Troy Glaus On the Ball, Al Kaline Round Numbers, and Lou Brock Round Numbers jerseys and I think the jerseys odds were 1 in 12 packs.
This post is great, it’s exactly why baseball fans are the best in the world.
