Yes, the 1993 Will Clark popped up at some point after I'd started compiling my list. In hindsight, I probably should have kept notes about where each card was sighted. Most are from eBay over the past 4 years.

Cool thanks . I had a note that it may have existed. But haven't seen it since I came back in 2012 so wasn't sure if it did or not. I'll keep it on my list , thx

Quite a nice pile of these turned up on eBay last night, allowing me to add this group of top notch superstar talent to the checklist.

Does anyone know is the 1997's are rarer than the others? Also, does anyone have a list of the variations from various years?

What does a 1997 look like? Also check my recent posts in the Clark Thread for pics of what I have with some variations

I didn't realize they went past 94' so was curious if you meant a copyright of 97' w/ other years of cards pictured or a 1997 Topps look.

Yeah they literally have a picture of the 1997 topps card - it is my understanding they didn't make one for every card in the set though.

Posting again on this old thread to say thanks to chief7575 for letting me buy that 1988 Alomar porcelain from him. Got it in the mail today - thanks Greg!

I'll try to get scans up later, but I did find the few extra Porcelain cards that I had. All of these are hand numbered 57/1000 on the back. 87 topps Matt Williams. 94? topps Coming Attractions Raul Mondesi/Ben Van Ryn, 74 Dennis Eckersley, 88 Topps Roberto Alomar.

Picked up this 1995 R&N China Topps Puckett porcelain card recently on eBay.

Any ideas as to what's up with the "Hobby Only," lack of a serial number, and the fact that in theory, it'd be numbered to 100? Also, if you look at the front you can see a thin layer of gold all around the edges.

The other 1995's I find online are numbered to 5,000 and lack the "Hobby Only."

There are so many quirks with the RN China things. From large serial #s , but nothing near that amount available in the markets, different packaging, variations with wording, things like you posted that almost comes across as a test that wasn't actually what they went with, etc etc. I love it, and look for whatever I can. Nice pickup BTW, curious if anyone else has one similar.

I had this listed as a 1994 Heirloom series, but I think COMC might list it as a 1992-93. I'm not sure. Either way, it's a jumbo at 4x6 inches.

I'm looking for the following R&N China Puckett's if I can find them reasonably priced...
1993 R&N China Topps Porcelain Card (1993 Topps)
1993 R&N China Topps Porcelain Card (1993 Topps All-Star)
1994 R&N China Topps Porcelain (1994 Topps)
1995 R&N China Topps Porcelain (1995 Topps) (/5,000)
1996 R&N China Topps Porcelain Keeper Series (1985 Topps /500)
