#10: 1999-00 SP Authentic Sign of the Times
One of Stuart's first autograph issues, the design of the card is a bit lacking (oh ... there's the player!) but that left plenty of room for Stuart to plant a sweet sig on the card. And it came from some pretty high-end stuff, overall not bad at all. |

#9: 1999-00 Topps Premier Plus Premier Rookies
There's nothing overly special about the card itself, it's a nice little insert, solid design but millions of them printed. The reason this is here is because it evaded me for so long ... I didn't even realize it was out there until 2 years after Premier Plus came out. Finding out it was there and getting adds a bit to the card for me. |

#8: 1998-99 Finest Future's Finest (367/500)
The Finest design shines through here. It's a really nice design, the card is limited (only 500 floating around) and it's one of Stuart's early releases. It just conveys all the potential and ability that he's bringing to the NHL, and combining that with a sharp design and limited print run is a winner for me. |

#7: 2000-01 Topps Premier Plus Private Signings
This is one of my all-time favorites right here. The design is out of this world. Great colors, capped off by the player photo along the side. The big signing area (which doubles as a little rink on the card) is perfect for a nice, big signature. These all come together to make a beautiful card, one I enjoy having very much. |

#6: 1999-00 Upper Deck Ovation Standing Ovation (34/50)
This one is really cool, not just because it's limited, but because of the effect of the card. When the back panel is made holographic (as is done with all the Standing Ovation cards) the player seems to spring up out of the card. It's a very cool effect ... to have a card like that of one of my favorites, and to have it limited to only 50 make it an awesome (no pun there!) card to have. |

#5: 2000-01 Topps Stars Progression
This is an absolutely great card. What fan hasn't wanted their favorite defenseman compared to the likes of Larry Robinson and Ray Bourque? To get a card comparing the young blueliner to guys with that kind of allure is very nice. |

#4: 1999-00 BAP Millenium Emerald Parallel (10/10)
One of Stuart's rarer parallels from a product that is pretty hard to find nowadays. While the card's main draw is the rarity, only 10 in circulation, the background color matching the Sharks team colors is a nice added bonus (completely coindicental as well) that jazzes this card up even more (as if it needed it). |

#3: 2003-04 BAP Memorabilia Gold Parallel (1/1)
When you purchased a BAP Memorabilia/ITGA update set online, there was a chance it would come with a special Gold parallel 1/1. And here's Stuart's. The design isn't anything to rave about, the photo is somewhat regular and you could miss the gold pretty easily if you weren't paying attention, but you know, the 1/1 serial numbering goes a long way to remedying these problems! |

#2 2000-01 BAP Ultimate Silver Autograph (39/90)
Coming only out of $100+ packs of Bap Ultimate, this card features Stuart and his big happy autograph on a card slabbed by BGS and limited to only 90. For the first 4 years in the hobby, this was the best of the best. |

#1: 2002-03 BAP Signature 4th Year Phenoms Jersey (stated /40)Not only is this one of Stuart's most limited cards, not only is it out of $15 packs, not only it is Stuart's first and only game used card so far, but it's also a beautiful 2-colored swatch! What isn't there to love? What a great first GU to have.
