Discovery Plaza

July 16, 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.

Another of the NBA's finest rookies of 1978-79, Terry saw action in each of Pistons' 82 games. He led the club with 201 Blocked Shots during the campaign and added 89 Assists and 104 Steals to his overall performance. Terry is a tremendous leaper who helped propel the University of Detroit to national attention during his tenure. He averaged 15 points-pergame in 110 contests for the Titans.

Started as 3rd baseman 11 years ago. Continues today as the Tribe regular and one of the best. A slugger, too, total homers 155, 31 last year to place 3rd in A.L. Clutch hitter, he chalked up 166 hits for a slugging average of .522. Slick fielding rated him a neat .969.

Chase has returned to the second base elite after three years of being nuisanced by injury. From 2005-13, no player at his position posted higher on-base or slugging percentages, and only one either hit more homers or drove in more runs.

Johnson ranked in the NCAA's TOP 20 in REB (6th), FG% (18th) and BLK (19th)... Sun Belt Conference PLAYER OF THE YEAR... Had 20/20 game versus Tulane (23 points, 20 rebounds).

Yoshihisa joined Arizona's middle relief corps after being a closer in Japan. Hirano lead NPB with 40 saves in 2014.

Though used as a third baseman by the Tigers, Don has had experience at second and shortstop. A workhorse, Don played in every Tiger game last season. At Durham in 1960, Don led the league in triples. Don was the A.A. batting champion in 1961

In 3 seasons as manager of the Yankees Casey has won 3 pennants and 3 world championships. He began in baseball in 1910. Has seen major-league action as an outfielder with Dodgers, Pirates, Phillies, Giants, Braves. Has piloted Dodgers, Braves and teams in minors.

One of the big guns on the Indians' potent pitching staff, big Mike won 18 games for the 1953 edition of the Tribe. In 1951 and 1952 Mike hit the coveted "20 games won" circle, winning an even 20 in 1951 and 22 in 1952. He began in baseball in 1942. First came to the majors in 1948 with the Indians. He got in 1 game pitching 2 innings, then was sent to Oklahoma City. His 19-16 record earned him...

Don pitched for the Chicago White Sox during the course of the 1954 season. He appeared in 46 games, 16 of which were starting assignments, and the remainder relief jobs. He won 8 and lost 7. Don worked 144 innings and gave up 129 hits. He walked 43 and struck out 68. His earned run average was a good 3.13. He began as Yankee property in 1944 with Kansas City. He also pitched for Newark that ye...

After 3 games for the Indians in 1951, Allie was traded to the Athletics. He got into 56 games for the A's. Hit .251. Knocked 5 home runs, 1 triple, 12 doubles. Fielded .985. Hit majors with Yanks at end of 1947 season. Traded to the Indians in December of the same year.

Evan was a consensus top-five prospect in MLB prior to the start of the 2024 season. In 2025, he will strive to recapture his record-setting 2023, when he set a Postseason record for doubles (nine).

To this day, Bench endures as the standard by which all other catchers are measured. He also remains in a category all his own for power and defensive potency. Of all backstops with at least 350 career homers, his 10 Rawlings Gold Glove awards nearly shut out his contemporaries. Only one other (Carlton Fisk) was honored even once.

The Rams have so much faith in Troy's ability that they let starting tight end Pat Carter depart via free agency. Drayton appeared mostly as a reserve in '93, yet still ranked fourth on the team with 27 receptions. Four of those receptions went for touchdowns to tie him for the team lead in scoring catches.

Chico's ability to go into corners and come up with the puck is a great asset. Playing on a line with Bobby Hull, opposing forwards are well aware of Chico's ability and often this alone allows Hull to break loose and score from a "patented" Maki pass.

Eddie was in 145 games for the Phils in 1951. Ran into a batting slump which proved hard to shake. Recorded his lowest average while in majors (.257). Drove in 46 runs. Began in baseball in 1939. First hit majors with Cubs in 1946. Traded to Phils for 1949. A slick fielder.

Bobby was in 135 games for the Phillies in 1954, and he batted .262. He had 119 hits good for a total of 190 bases. These included 25 doubles, 2 triples and 14 home runs. He batted in 50 runs and scored 58. Bobby came into organized baseball as property of the Brooklyn Dodgers, in 1944, with their Newport News farm team. He first came to the majors in 1950 with Brooklyn. He spent the next seaso...

Low-grade commons in the 1909 T206 Set can be bought for as little as about $15-$25.

One of the greatest perimeter defenders in the modern era, "The Glove's" 2,402 career steals rank third all time in NBA history behind only Michael Jordan and John Stockton.

The Cavaliers unseated the defending champion Warriors with an instant classic - a 93-89 victory in Game 7 of the NBA Finals - at Oakland on June 19, 2016. With an epic game that featured 20 lead changes and a tied score (89-89) with 53 seconds left, Irving stepped back and buried the winning 3-pointer from the left wing.

Bob won 21 games in 1953, his second straight season in the 20 game winners' circle. He has played the infield, outfield and pitched during his baseball career which began in 1938. During 1942 he did no pitching at all. When he came back from the service in 1946 he was considered a pitcher, but got into a total of 102 games that year and the next as an outfielder. Pitched a no-hitter in 1948. L...

Ask David Cassidy Q. Do you ever get stage fright? A. Luckily I don't get too nervous when I'm performing. Of course, I'm concerned whether the people like my music, but I'm not too uptight about it when I'm on the stage.

The unsung but invaluable Peralta trades off 96-mph sinkers and 89-mph sliders as a sturdy bridge to the final innings. In 2022, he served up just two HRS to 223 BF and limited lefties to a 155 AVG.

In 2021, Kuier became the sixth international prospect (Finland) without NCAA experience to be selected in the top five of the WNBA draft. "She's going to be a beast," said Dallas forward Isabelle Harrison, who was Kuier's teammate in Italy. "I can't wait for the States to see somebody with this talent."

A two-time MLB All-Star Game selection and the 2019 batting champion, Tim also is a savvy base runner. He's one of only eight players to swipe double-digit bags in each of the past seven full seasons.

Making a valiant effort to gain himself a regular berth in the New York Yankee outfield is young Tommy Henrich. This is Henrich's fourth season with the World Champions. He sold himself to them as a free agent at the close of the 1936 season. Last season, in 99 games, Tommy hit .277, seven points above his previous season's average, drove across 57 runs, and scored 64 himself. He is an excellen...

McCulley, who ranked 20th in the WNBA in blocked shots per game in 2000, tallied a season-high 17 points as the Fever dropped a 54-52 decision to Miami on July 1.

Standing strong for the Suns in 2019-20, Ayton averaged 18.2 points and 11.5 rebounds. The rising star became just the third active player to average at least 15 points and 10 boards in each of his first two seasons. The stout center put his name alongside Blake Griffin and Karl-Anthony Towns.

Willie returns to the Giants from the Army in time for the 1954 season. He is probably the greatest young fielder there is. In addition, he's a dangerous man with a bat. He pulled a play in 1951 that many call one of baseball's greatest in a game against the Dodgers. He caught a ball on the run in deep center field, whirled and threw a perfect strike to the plate, catching the runner trying to ...

Anderson proved his fantastic rookie season wasn't a fluke by following it up with an 11.0-sack campaign in 2024. His top performance came in Week 6 against the Patriots when he pulled down the quarterback three times on his way to finishing with eight tackles and four tackles for loss in the 41-21 win.

This will be Bob's 11th active season in the majors. With 3 years of minor league ball under his belt, he broke in with the White Sox as a third-baseman in 1939 and led the American League in putouts at this position in 1940. Traded to the Indians in 1948, Bob has his best years in 1949 and 1950, hitting .276 and .291 while switching to the outfield. He took time out from baseball for 3 years t...
