Does anyone know where I can find a complete listing of this set? Or can I get some help filling in the gaps?

Unfortunately, it seems the only way to determine the series is if the photo still has the wrapper. The series is listed on the back of the packaging.

Here's what I've dug up so far (meaning I've actually found an image online). I know most of the usual suspects will be in the set (Murphy, Dykstra, Langston, Gibson, Hrbek, Gaetti, Wallach, etc), but don't want to add them to the list until I get independent confirmation:

I think there may have been 2 series of these photos - I have 2 still in their packaging, both Detroit Tigers. One is Jeff Robinson and the other is Matt Nokes. Both of the packages reference them as "Photo Series No. 2". Unfortunately neither of them has an order form or checklist with them. The fronts are identicle to the Winfield in your scan.

That would help explain why some players had two different photos.

Ozzie Smith, Dominique Wilkins, Marc Jackson, Alex English, Tom Chambers, Mark Grace, Mike Scott, Ma, rk Price, Kevin Mitchell, Patrick Ewing, Mike Scott. All 8x10 Action Photos, Photo Series 1, SUPER STARS, put out in 1990 by Collectors Marketing Corp. Anyone know what the value of these are? There are all in original sleeves with cardboard.

If you are very lucky, you can get about the $2-3 they retailed for originally.

I found evidence of a Frank Viola photo today and have updated the list. I'll also start adding a note for any Series 2 photos. Conspicuously absent from the set, so far, are the Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians, Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays.

Among those teams, I would expect photos of:

Atlanta
David Justice, Ron Gant, John Smoltz, Tom Glavine

Cleveland
Cory Snyder, Brook Jacoby and maybe Sandy Alomar Jr.

Philadelphia
Lenny Dykstra, Dale Murphy, Von Hayes

Toronto
George Bell, Kelly Gruber, Tony Fernandez

Given when the set's line up was settled, some would probably be Series 2 releases, but I still find it odd that that four whole teams are missing.

After receiving an email from another collector, I have updated the list, adding a few, and breaking the list up into series as confirmed.

I don't have anything to add on the subject of this thread, but now is as good a time as any to ask who the hell is the guy on your avatar photo?

According to the writing on the back of the photo, it is my great great grandfather, Edwin Batterson Webb (Bat) Brockett (1852-1920). But as it does not quite match the only other photo I have that I know is him, I suspect it is actually my 3rd great grandfather, Nathaniel Dickeson Brockett (1813-1890). Either way, I thought that beard would make for a unique avatar.
