Pro-Vision from The Diamond King

When I think of Donruss I think of two things. Puzzles and Diamond Kings. One of my goals in 2021 is to organize my collection. I have all 17 Donruss puzzles that they issues in various products over the years. I want to frame each of them and put them up on display. I had seen someone on Twitter that  had framed up one of the Donruss puzzles and I fell in love. I reached out and asked where they got the frame. Wal-Mart. Okay, easy enough. I went to Wal-Mart the other night and found the frame and bought one just to try it out. It looks great, but there are two problems. Problem #1 is that the frames cost $9.87 each before tax. With tax I'm looking at $175 to frame all 17 puzzles. Problem #2 is the space involved to display these 17 famed puzzles is more than I currently have. 

But enough about my problems. Check out how awesome it looks. And this is with bad lighting.

In addition to the puzzles, eventually I will own all of the Donruss Diamond Kings cards that were part of the base Donruss sets. Unlike, The Diamond King, I don't need all of the Diamond Kings that we interred and or numbered. Speaking of The Diamond King, he recently sent me a pwe with this card, which was on my Most Wanted list.

This 1992 Fleer Robin Yount Pro-Vision card was on my Most Wanted list because, just like I want the puzzles and Diamond Kings from Donruss, I want all of the Fleer Pro-Vision cards and I needed this one to complete the 1992 baseball set. Notice I said I want all of the Fleer Pro-Vision cards. I didn't specify the sport and that's because I am going after all of the Pro-Vision cards; baseball, basketball and football. I'm getting close.

Because I was late in opening and then in updating my Most Wanted list, I actually got a second copy of this card from another blogger. Thank you Gavin! The remainder of the cards I got from Gavin will be showcased on a seperate post on another day, although I am going to learn my lesson and update my Most Wanted list now by crossing off the other cards that Gavin checked off my Most Wanted list.
