Discovery Plaza

June 7, 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.

One of the most popular players in the NHL, Ed is also highly un- derrated. He plays forward and defense and excels in killing pen- alties. Ed is always cast in the roll of a "shadow" for the opposi- tion's best forwards. They call Ed: "Mr. Handyman" of the Bruins!

The eighth player chosen in the 2000 NHL Draft, Nikita turned pro after three years with the OHL Erie Otters, for whom he logged 160 points in 189 games.

Just 2 years after Bobby was playing sandlot ball in Pittsburgh, he was up with the Pirates playing Major League ball. The Buccaneers bought Bobby's contract from Charleston, S.

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

Spencer's middle name is Enochs, which is his mother's maiden name. "It's got 'knocks' in it, so I like it," he jokes. So does his bat.

One of the game's premier offensive threats, Young creates buckets even when his shot isn't falling. In 2021-22, the dime-slinging guard topped the league in points created by assists (1,832). Add in his own net-finding skills and it's easy to see how he landed on the All-NBA Third Team.

Lara's technical aide is a brilliant geek who lives near Croft Manor in a ratty trailer overrun with his robotic creations. When Lara is in the field, he feeds information to her, serving as her eyes and ears. He sadly surveys the ruins of the droid.

Frank pitched only 4 innings in 3 appearances for the Tigers, and was involved in no decisions in 1954. However, he is regarded as a fine prospect. He starred at the University of Alabama, and was signed off the campus. In 1950 he was with Jamestown of the Pony League, where he won 5 and lost 2 and had a league leading 1.88 earned run average. He went in military service just at the beginning o...
