Top 100 Jose Canseco Baseball Cards – 2003 Donruss Classics Dress Code /350

This is the first time I’ve seen a 2003 Dress Code Canseco come to market, with a patch. I halfway assumed it wasn’t real, but figured I’d give it a shot. As it turns out, not only is it a legit patch; it is also Jose’s first patch/bat card! Another oddity – the card number is 58 … and so is the serial number. That’s right, it is 58/350. Maybe it is a coincidence, or maybe it is a landmark that Donruss decided to recognize.  It is also one of the very, very few patch cards released within a year of Jose retiring.  Released a mere months before Donruss started differentiating swatch and patch cards (for Jose at least,) if this were recognized as a patch parallel, this would no doubt be numbered to /10 or less!
