Eric Chavez Mailweek: Lots of Inserts (And a Question)

EricChavezCollector3 · Mar 13, 2011

Only pick ups this week were inserts minus the duplicate of Tip of Cap. All were purchased from Beckett's Marketplace. I am not a fan of show cards but they are on beckett's checklist and helped justify shipping so they were worth picking up. Nothing too exciting this week but getting closer to 75% with each new pick up (Still over 130 cards away).

2001-2002 Donruss Elite Chicago Show Promo /5

2001-2002 Donruss Class of 2001 Chicago Show Promo /5

2001-2002 Studio Chicago Show Promo /5

2001 Fleer Genuine Tip of the Cap /150 Yellow Swatch (Assuming the yellow is rarer than the green)

And now the question. What exactly is this? It was listed as "2002 ALCS Program Playoff Piece of the Game #ALCS-21 Eric Chavez"

This 100 card set was issued in November, 2002. It was released in six card packs, issued six packs to a box and 24 boxes to a case, which retailed for $16.99 per pack. The first 50 cards of the set featured veterans while the final 50 cards featured Rookie Cards. All the cards from 51 through 100 were issued to a stated print run of 500 serial numbered sets.

those Chicago collections are sick.. what did they run you Chad?

George_Calfas: Thank you George, the card is perforated. Were they issued in sheets like sports illustated cards?

1st4040: They were $4 a piece. A pretty good price I think. I wouldn't have paid above $5 but they go well with the Donruss Signature version I picked up years ago.

I believe the card you are asking about was part of a 9-card sheet inserted into the 2002 ALCS game programs. I think there were 4 different sheets in all for a total of 32 cards. The center card of each sheet was a Donruss-Leaf-Playoff logo card.
