Discovery Plaza

December 24, 2025

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.

Annie was a present-day Xena fan who believed that she was Xena's incarnation. To prove it, she and her boyfriend Harry went to see Mattie, a reincarnation specialist, who determined that one of them was Xena - but it was Harry! Annie was in fact Joxer reincarnated. She and Harry broke up, and Harry married Mattie, but when another Xena scroll was discovered, the three of them met up again. Are...

Kemp's accurate arm led the Chargers to the Western Division title. Chosen All-League QB, Jack led the AFL in passing with 3018 yds., 51.8% completions, 20 TD's.

A last-minute replacement for injured SuperSonics star Shawn Kemp, Tim Perry doubled Philadelphia's chances of winning the 1993 NBA Slam-Dunk Championship by joining teammate Clarence Weatherspoon in the event. A fifth-place finisher in 1989, Perry had experience on his side as he was the second-oldest competitor at 27 years old and was one of three players who had been in the dunk contest befo...

Autographed 1909 T206 Set cards do exist but a large discovery of faked ones was made in 2018.

Many of the images used on cards in the 1909 T206 Set were also used in other baseball card sets.

One of only two Marlins players to belt double-digit homers in each of the past three seasons, Jesus can beat opponents with more than just the longball. He snatched away a potential game-tying, ninth-inning grand slam with a leaping catch against Seattle last June 14. On August 2, Sanchez blooped a single to left field to walk off the Phillies, 9-8.

Steve is big and strong and he is capable of hitting a long ball. He appeared in 92 games for the 1952 edition of the Detroit Tigers, hitting 249. He also plays first base. Steve has been in baseball since 1939. He first hit the major leagues in 1946, after returning from three years in service, with the New York Yankees. He was with the Chicago White Sox in 1949.

As 2004 opened, Mike was on course to break Carlton Fisk's all-time catcher's record for home runs. A 10-time winner of the Silver Slugger Award, there is little argument that he is MLB's greatest-ever hitter at the position. Mike was the 1993 National League Rookie of the Year and the MVP of the 1996 All-Star Game. He has hit .300 in 9 of his 11 full seasons.

One of the game's most reliable scorers, DeRozan has also developed into a dandy of a dime man. The creative wing has averaged at least 20 points and five assists each of the past four seasons. That's something only six other players In the league can boast. He set a personal high with 6.9 helpers per contest in 2020-21.

Few players come back after a serious injury to have a season like Eddie Miller had last year with the Boston Bees. The highly-touted youngster lived up to all his publicity notices by being far and away the best shortstop in the National League. He fielded a brilliant .970, taking part in 122 double plays, and his .276 batting average does not tell the story of 79 runs batted in, 157 hits, fou...

In addition to professional major leaguers, the 1909 T206 Set includes minor league players and players from the Southern Leagues.

Flying her Viper, Starbuck couldn't believe the order to destroy the Olympic Carrier. Apollo was dead serious. They fired into the civilian ship's engines, and it exploded violently. Back on Caprica, Number Six kissed Helo - and was suddenly shot from behind. It was Boomer, or so Helo thought. As they fled, a Cylon and another Number Six watched them go. Meanwhile the fleet entered its 24th hou...

Larry was the 6th draft choice in '62.- His coach said, "no matter where we put him, he winds up being best player there." He found his best position at guard.

Set club rebounding record during 1972-73 season. Was runner-up as NBA Rookie of Year for 1972-73. Drafted: #3-1972 by Portland.

"Spec" turned in his best season in '52 since breaking into the Majors in spectacular fashion with the Yanks in '47. That year, he had a League Leading 14-5 record, won 2 World Series games and gained credit for the All-Star game victory. Arm trouble plagued Frank after '47. He had a 9-10 record in '48 and went to Newark in '49 and Kansas City in '50. In '51 he won 5 for the Yanks and was trade...

On Sunday, December 12, 1937, the U. S. S. Panay was anchored in the Yangtze River about 28 miles above Nanking, acting as a refuge for American citizens. American flags, prominently displayed, gave warning of its status. Imagine the bitter surprise of its crew when at 1.38 P. M. Japanese planes appeared overhead and began dropping bombs on its decks! One bomb ripped a great hole in the deck of...

A cagey hurler, Ken has pin-point control as shown by his average of 1.9 Walks per game in 11 years of major league ball. A navy Veteran, he's pitched four 1-hit games in the last 4 years and has the 2nd best Shutout record in the National League with 24. Since he came up with the Cubs in 1940, he's played with the Phils and Reds and 2 minor league clubs. He loves to face the Cubs for he has a ...

The Packers started in 1919 as a team of former Green Bay High School players. In the 1920's a group of businessmen supported the team and were rewarded with 3 straight Championships. The greatest glory for the Packers began when Don Hutson joined the team in 1935.

Began 1950 with Cincinnati (27 games). Finished season with the Cubs (53 games). Combined batting average for the two clubs was .272. First a major-leaguer with Phillies in 1942. Traded to Cardinals in 1947, and to Reds in 1949. Back in 1944, Ron hit a homer in 15th inning to win longest 1-0 modern major-league game to be decided by a circuit clout. In service 1 year.

Jerry got into 64 games for the Senators in 1954, and he hit .234. He batted in 17 runs with 36 hits. 1947 was his first year in organized baseball. In 1952 he was with the Yankees' Kansas City farm. The Yankees recalled him in May 1952 and traded him to the Washington Senators. He finished the season with the Senators, then began 1953 with Chattanooga, where he hit .307 for 82 games. Back with...

Meanwhile, on the surface of Kobol, Tyrol and the rest of the crew fight for their lives against an unseen enemy while Baltar seeks solace in his visions of Number Six, only to find those visions turn dark and haunting. And on Cylon-occupied Caprica, Starbuck and Helo must find some way to bring the Arrow of Apollo back to the fleet after a Cylon Sharon steals Starbuck's Raider.

"He'll be a real force in three or four years," NBA superscout Marty Blake said about Rik when he was the second player drafted (after Danny Manning) in 1988. After only two years, those words are already true. Rik played in every regular-Season game in 1989-90, led the Pacers in blocked shots, finished 2nd in rebounding and 4th in scoring, and shot excellent percentages from the floor and the ...

Adrian Peterson, who has supporters himself as the game's finest player, has tweeted that Percy is "the best all around player I have ever seen or you'll ever see" His appraisal is a product of his former teammate's numerous Vikings records for receiving, kick returning and rushing. Harvin was traded to Seattle and received a contract extension in March.

It looked as if Batman had met his match in the Fiendish Fakir. If the Caped Crusader even moved, the scaly creature before him would attack-and it would be bye-bye Batman!

Following Opechancanough's massacre of 347 colonists in the tobacco fields of Jamestown in 1622, the English swore vengeance and vowed to destroy the Indians. For the next few years, marauding bands of white men attacked Algonquian villages and burned their crops, thereby forcing the Indians to retreat further and further away from Jamestown. In 1625, colonial forces attacked the village of Pam...

"Zeke" Bonura, who acquired his nickname from the late Knute Rockne, who marvelled at Bonura's physique, started his professional baseball career with his home town team in 1929. He played with them until 1933, moving to Dallas and from there to the Chicago White Sox. Zeke played first base for the White Sox until the end of the 1937 season, failing to hit over .300 only one season. On March 18...

After two years at Arkansas, Beverley played professionally for BC Dnipro in the Ukrainian Basketball League during the 2008-09 season. He led the team in assists (3.6) and steals (2.2) per game while ranking second in scoring (16.7) and rebounding (7.0).

In 107 games for the Braves in 1950, hitting .277. Voted the outstanding freshman in American Association in 1949. Batted .317 for Milwaukee.

Chris' 78.6 FG Pct. (22-for-28) in 1989 is third-highest in Packers' history. Equipped with impressive leg strength, he not only gets the ball up in a hurry with good trajectory, but with distance on the ball.

In 1953, Hank posted his best Big League Batting Mark and Home Run total. His .289 average and 20 Homers in 1950 were his previous highs. In 1950, Hank led the N.L. 3rd Basemen with 43 Double Plays to set a new League Record. The Giants brought him up in 1949 and he hit .280 in 75 games. In '52, Hank hit .260, drove in 67 Runs and smacked 17 Home Runs. Remember how the Giants beat the Dodgers 2...
