Discovery Plaza

April 6, 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.

The Bucs boasted one of the game's best do-it-all backs in James Wilder in the 1980s. Doing his best impression of the team legend, Irving shined in all facets against the Falcons in Week 8 of 2024. The rookie toted the ball nine times and logged a season-high seven receptions in the classic creamsicle fit.

A veteran of 4 seasons with WHA's Winnipeg Jets, Anders joins the Rangers for 1978-79. He won the league's Rookie of the Year Award in 1974-75 and led with 13 Goals during the Playoffs of 1976.

During the 1949 season, Tommy was with the Sox farm team at Louisville in the American Association. He played in 151 games, and batted a nifty .368. His 202 hits added up to a total of 283 bases. He clouted 9 homers, and drove in 89 runs. Sent to Louisville in June, 1951.

After six years with the Stars, Manny moved to Minnesota in 2000-01. As a No. 1 goalie, finished with the NHL's eighth-best GAA and seventh best save percentage (.920).

In 1950 Jack's first season in the National League after coming to the Giants from the Red Sox - he won 3 and lost 6 in 35 appearances. Hampered by a sore arm for the last 2 seasons. Had a 6-8 record in 21 games for the Sox in 1949. Began with Toledo and the St. Louis Browns in 1936. Went to Boston after the 1947 season in big deal.

Selected as an All-Star hurler in the Carolina League in 1965, Dock rose to the occasion and was the ballgame's winning pitcher. Dock has a fine assortment of pitches which include a live fastball, a sharp breaking curve and an excellent change-up. Dock pitched 15 complete games in 1965.

With surgical command and breathtaking efficiency, Greg piled up the eighth-most wins in history on his way to a first-ballot Hall of Fame call in 2014. The four-time NL Cy Young Award winner fashioned a 2.15 ERA in his initial six Braves seasons (1993-98).

Minnie has been in the American League two full seasons, has led in stolen bases both years. In 1952 he pilfered 22 sacks, 31 the preceding year. He can really go get 'em in the outfield, and his bat is dangerous. As a rookie, he began the season with Cleveland, then was traded, right after the start of the year, to Chicago. He batted .326, had 14 triples, high for the league, and 34 doubles.

St. Louis Brown flychaser. He measures 5' 8" and tips the scales at 180 pounds.

Shohei is one of only five players to notch at least 40 steals in one season and 200 pitching strikeouts in another. The other four all did so before the mound was moved to its current distance in 1893.

A career-best scoring average spoke to how much Lamond thrived in his first season as a Cavalier after five as a Clipper. His most critical performance came on April 19 in New Jersey when, with 16.1 seconds to go and Cleveland down a point, he was fouled in the lane. He tied the game with a free throw then, seconds later, found himself open on the left wing, where he bombed home a three for the...

Logged between 377 and 813 receiving yards all four years at Arkansas... Totaled 570 more in punt returns (including 5 TDs) and 248 (9.2 YPC) on the ground...

Armando Marsans, outfielder of the St. Louis Federals, was born at Havana, Cuba, in 1888. He played for several years with the Almendares team, in Havana, the strongest club on the island, and developed so rapidly that in 1908 he was signed by the New Britain Club, of the Connecticut League. After three years of development with New Britain, he was purchased by the Cincinnati club in 1911, and ...

The 2006 Topps Allen & Ginter card of Johnny Estrada reviews his career to date; he has slashed out 319 hits, including 78 two-baggers and 21 long shots to the stands. In addition, he has also maintained a batting average of .273.

Nashville's first pick (second overall in the 1998 draft), David was the CHL Rookie of the Year in 1998. In 2000-01, he ranked fourth on the Predators in assists and total points.

He came back to the big league and made good. Joined the Chicago Cubs in 1932, when the team was fighting for a pennant and his hits helped to put it over. Used to play with the New York Yankees, then served with Detroit for a couple of years, but was sent back to the minors. Played with Mission in the Pacific Coast League and when the Cubs needed a good infielder they bought him. Hit .353 last...

In general, cards featuring portraits of players are more desirable than the cards featuring action shots in the 1909 T206 Set.

Labanc answered the call to represent his country at the World Championship in the spring of 2021 following his 28-point season with the San Jose Sharks. The native of Staten Island, N.Y., chipped in a pair of goals and six points in 10 contests at the tournament in Riga, Latvia, to help the Americans head home with bronze medals.

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.

Joaquin gained Save for Astros in 1980 N.L. Playoffs. Shane Rawley set Mariners' mark with 113.2 refief innings in 1980. The Houston Astros played only 1 doubleheader in 1981 - and swept both games.

Sam joined the White Sox in 1952, and then was farmed out for the next two seasons before returning to Chicago. He has proven to be a valuable hand, starting his share of games at as many as four positions. Sammy attended Indiana U for three years. It's tough to bunt when he's playing third.

Acquired from Chicago in June, 1962, Doug missed rookie honors by two-tenths of a point. Has 19 goals in three NHL seasons, mostly off the point.

After selecting Susac in the first round of the 2022 draft, Oakland sent him to its rookie-level club to see how his bat stacked up against pro hurlers. Watching the backstop go 3-for-3 with a double and two RBI in his debut (Aug. 4) erased any doubts among the brass. Within a week he was on his way up the ladder with a promotion to Class A.

Gaborik, still just 21, already has scored 78 NHL goals and played in the All-Star game. His tremendous speed and quick hands make him one of the league's most explosive stars. "Marian can fire the puck in full stride and ring it off the far post up high," says Wild assistant coach Mike Ramsey. "Not many people possess that ability." Gaborik's 55 points in '02-03 propelled Minnesota to the play...

The Warriors' leading scorer in 1973-74, Rick had the NBA's top point production of any game last season with a magnificent 64-point output against Portland last March 26th, including 30 field goals. Rick did color TV commentary of NBA playoffs.

The capable pitcher came to the Dodgers in a big four team deal shortly after the first of the year. If he can control his temper he could be an important factor in the Dodgers' 1953 chances. He was in 37 games for the Phillies in 1952, winning 13 and losing 14. His earned run average was a low 3.14. Began in baseball in 1942. With the Cubs before the Phillies.

Warren did not start a game over his first two seasons. Yet he became one of the most valuable Steelers, accounting for more than 1,700 yards from scrimmage from 2022-23. He's a ball-carrier and pass-catcher (second on the team in rushing and catches in '23), blocker and pass-protector who has everyone's back.
