    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    That's almost more sad than them being cut up though!

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    These aren't quite a "current wave of never-before-known-about" issue though, Blue/White tests have been around for quite awhile, there just aren't a lot of them.

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    Pretty much the feeling I had when viewing the video for the first time. I noticed the Ripken right away

    Blue/White have been known for at least 10 years now, I bought my Ripken about that long ago.

    I'd have to agree with that!

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    I'm torn on this... part of me thinks it would be a shame to cut them up as it's an awesome display piece. But the reality is, sheets like that are a pain to display and keep in good condition (as it looks like a few cards on that blue sheet are already creased including the Ripken :( )...

    Have you considered having the sheets professionally cut at all, or are you going to auction them as is?

    Who wants to buy this for me? :)

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    Thanks, it's been a bit of a pain, but fun as well! Yeah I totally understand... it's somewhat exciting to discover a new card of your player, but then gut wrenching when it's from a pretty rare set.

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    From what I've seen currently I don't think there are more than 3-4 of each card (except for the double prints). I know of 2 other Ripkens like mine, and know who owns them, but have never seen more. The blue Ripken on the sheet is the first I have seen, along with many others like the...

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    He just said in the next week or so he plans to auction them. I've messaged him to get more details but haven't heard back yet. As far as the Red/Red set, I really don't know much about it. I would say they are slightly rarer. This past summer when all the Blue/White and Aqueous cards went...

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    He says he plans to auction that and the Red/Red sheet that he has. I think having it cut would be the better bang for the buck, but either way it should bring some good cash. If it's cut I hope the Ripken singles will show up for auction :)

    From this video (and yes the :50 mark makes me cringe): http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=o9bkWpixtxQ Hard to see everything on there from the low quality, but here's a spreadsheet of every card on that sheet...

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    I picked up my Ripken for fairly cheap compared to recent prices, but that was about 10 years ago now. I don't think I will have the same luck if the inverse with Ripken on the blue side comes up for sale/auction as a single...

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    Judging from the prices that other stars sold for back in November, you'll pay a pretty penny for them! I've seen the Puckett that is on the white side as a single, but only recently saw that Puckett exists on the blue side as well, but it's on the uncut sheet that has recently been discovered.

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    Tell me about it... I was both excited and saddened to find out there was actually an inverse for my Ripken. Even worse... his Bonus MVP card is in the Red/Red Test... I'll have a checklist for that set tomorrow hopefully!

    1990 Donruss Blue/White Test

    Well I was finally able to finish the checklist for this set. The set was printed using 2 different 132 card sheets, which would give 264 cards, but 4 of the cards have the same player on both sides and end up getting double printed in the Test set. The sheets used in the Blue/White Test also...

    It's possible that if he didn't answer the first time, he doesn't wish to disclose how much he paid for it.

    Yeah, happens a lot with the Gophers though. One of the problems with having a lot of talented players, they want to bolt for the NHL right away.
