Dont know 1+, I have some of these some place, just too lazy to go find the doubles. I am guessing I have all of the StL and my 90s player collections in double.

And we though Burbank was over priced

cant wait to see the scan of your Jefferies

Love to find a Ripken.

George, you have my players first pitch preview and I dont.. wow thats not saying alot for me LOL but then again you probably have a couple of the select certified cards of him I still need too... if there is any way I can get these cards from you..contact me and let me know

anyone that wants too, feel free to print this letter

I have my copy of Will Clark and Eddie Murray.

LOL @ the Clark listed for $199

I paid $8 for mine (steal, I know).

Still looking for a Will Clark, not at $199 though.

Would kill for Walker. Still have not seen one

Just don't kill me for it.

Well, since no one ever posted a scan of one, here's mine:



They stand out from the base by the color of the metal overlay (besides the words on the side). Here's a base:

Still working on a package for you, need to find something else to round out the bubble mailer, if I dont it will go out Thursday.

Never found one for Belle, bought this Bichette and sold it cheap a couple of years ago:

this could be one of the hardest mainstream issues for player collectors to track down.
i still need the alomar and jefferies

Is jastermereel a member here? I know he used to be over at the old place - I bought my Rolen Signature Patch from him.

I own two of these.



No idea what it's worth, so I listed one of them on eBay.

Does anyone know the approximate print run?
