Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

[George_Calfas]

I believe George said around 75-90, somewhere in that range. Still difficult for 90's standards, and probably undervalued compared to other inserts with similar print runs.

I have 69 of a player, 68 of another, and 65 of a third. I knew a few guys at Pinnacle. The thought was 45 set were packed out, 30 sets (of all colors) were to be given away to employees. At some point in 1998/99 D&A bought a bunch of Pinnacle stock that included the 30 sets plus the 1998 Mirror Red and Gold proof sets.

I always thought 75 but having 69 of one makes me wonder if the number is not a shade higher. I have considered 90 in past conversations but the lack of any of my players in the past 3-5 years makes me believe 75 is pretty close.

@RustyGreerFan it also appears that particular one was listed back in 2011 and is no longer available. The page is in Japanese and is the pricing of available cards (Yen)

Thanks for the help, guys! At least now I can say I've seen it. Hard to believe there's a card from 17 years ago with 50 issues that I've never seen until now.

Send the guy an email using translation tools, you never know! Plus what a great story that would make if he still has it around!

Thanks George for the information. Impressive hoard of 1997 mirror golds you have there.

Totally photoshopped. There are only 30 of each player! Ask any seller on ebay!

NICE CARD BUT WRONG THREAD.

This set is probably my favorite insert from the 90's. I have not been able to lock down a gold medallion version yet.
