This picture DeliciousBacon posted on one of his threads reminded me about a question several player collectors had about the 1992 Colla Promos (not to be confused with the Colla All-Star Promos). Below is the checklist from Beckett. It matches the checklist on the back of Nolan Ryan's card (which I now have to pick up) with the exception of Steve Avery. Many of these sets are from previous years, but can it be possible that Beckett decided to throw all these promos into 1992? I've long considered my 1991 copy of the Sandberg promo to be Beckett's 1992 Colla Promo. Do other player collectors feel the same?

I grabbed these all hoping that maybe they were the mythical All Star Promos, and I'd be able to make some player collectors happy. Looking in my big Beckett, the Clark and Mattingly correspond to the listed 1990 sets of those players. The Alomar and Sandberg match up with their 1991 sets, and the Ryan, Thomas and Bagwell correspond to the 1992 sets. There's no way Beckett has this listing right, but it looks like Colla may not have it right either. I don't see anything saying he actually issued sets for most of the players listed on back of the 1992 Ryan. It could be that Beckett copied this checklist into their database years ago, and never verified it. If that's the case, then there are uncataloged promos from 1990 and 1991, along with non-existant sets for 1992. I'm no expert on these Colla sets, so this is just my best guess.
