Discovery Plaza

April 21, 2026

Discovery Plaza is the 1000 square foot forecourt leading to the Card Cyber Museum - a daily exhibition of 60 sports cards waiting to be discovered beneath your feet! Inspired by the forecourt of the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, where celebrities leave their handprints in concrete, our Plaza features digital frames embedded in the ground - beneath bulletproof glass. Each day brings a new rotation of cards showcasing the incredible sets found within the museum. Click any colored text square to flip it and reveal the card front, or click any card image to view full details.


Originally inspired by Piet Mondrian's neoplasticism style with bold primary colors, Discovery Plaza invites you to uncover the stories behind the cards.

Card 278785
Back to the basket, Vucevic can't see the rim, but that doesn't mean he can't score. The All-Star center can get buckets with a quick spin shot or a polished fadeaway. In 2020-21, he recorded 314 points out of post-up looks, third most in the league behind Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic.
Card 477532
Russell didn't play much as a UCLA frosh in '06-07, then returned with a much-improved game that balanced stylish slashes on offense with dogged defense. Maybe it was the new 'do. "It's the flaming hawk," is the way he explained the unique design clipped into his newly-short mane. "He is a competitor," Sonics GM Sam Presti said after taking Westbrook fourth overall, "and he is the ultimate team...
Card 158122
Whether playing third base or right field, Brian brandishes one of the strongest arms in Baseball. He's steady at the plate, where he charted a career-high on-base streak of 25 games in April and May of 2022.
Card 255548
Flashing extraordinary bat speed, Jhonkensy has earned a reputation as a monstrous masher who can change momentum in games with one swing.

Card 233116

Card 53618
One of the finest defensive linemen in the NFL, Roger is just about impossible to run over. As fast as he is big, he does a great job against a running game.

One key to Bosa being one of the best pass-rushers in the league is his strict offseason program. "I like to lift, so I'll be in the gym, but I don't like to get too far out of shape because I just feel bad, mentally," he said of his preparations for 2025. "So, yeah, it won't be sedentary, but I'll be chilling a little bit."

Card 57528
One of the big reasons for the failure of the Giants to repeat their pennant-winning ways in '52 was the loss of Willie to the Service early in the campaign. The NL's "Rookie of the Year" in '51, Willie's career is brief but brilliant. He .353 for Trenton in '50, his first year in pro ball. Promoted to Minneapolis in '51, Willie was hitting at a .477 pace before the Giants called him up. With t...
Card 98683
A midnight call from Commissioner Gordon's office sent Batman and Robin off to a nearby mansion. Batman ran into a room and found himself tumbling into a tank holding a tentacled terror. A razor-sharp knife from his belt helped Batman free himself.
Card 208585
Ask Elvis: What kind of girl do you like best? It might sound corny, but that old song about wanting a girl just like the girl that married dad, goes for me. The girl I want has to love to do the things I do. She's got to be natural - not all made up to be something she's not. She doesn't have to be a movie queen or beauty contest win- ner. She should be able to cook - that's real important. An...
Card 51372
Second pick overall in 1988 draft by Indiana... Nicknamed "Dunking Dutchman"... NBA all-rookie first team in 1989... Led Indiana in blocked shots in 1988-89 season.
Card 514065
Good left handed pitchers, like Carl Hubbell of the Giants, are becoming more and more scarce. It is said, in the major leagues, that of two pitchers of equal pitching calibre, a left and a right, the portsider has greater effect because his curves and line of pitching flight come from an awkward angle to the batter. Some major league batters learn to switch from one side of the plate to the ot...
Card 245688
MY BIGGEST THRILL IN BASEBALL by Hank Majeski. My biggest thrill came to me in the past World Series, the Indians against the New York Giants. In the 4th game, I was sent in to pinch-hit for the pitcher in the 5th inning, with two men on base. I hit a home run. As you know, the Giants beat us four straight, and my home run did not play a "Merriwell" part. However, though it may have been only a...
Card 56511
It's almost ciche to state that goaltending wins championships in the NHL, but that fact was never more clear than in last season's playoffs. The Devils rode the play of their rookie netminder all the way to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Martin Brodeur was a key to the Devils' success all season. He finished Second in GAA, fourth in save percentage (.915), was named the goaltender fo...
