In 1998 Leaf (for their 50th anniversary) had a subset called "curtain calls" in their base set. They took some of the more popular Leaf cards from through the years, and essentially reprinted and added the newer foil to them. The Curtain Calls Subset also had parallels... Fractal Matrix, Fractal Materials, and then Fractal Matrix/Material Die Cuts. This is the Fractal Matrix Z-Axis Die Cut... the rarest of them all.
Here is my Griffey from the same set - notice it's a reprint of his 1990 Leaf card.
Hope this helps.

So the Ripken and the A-Rod above are not Curtain Calls. But still parallels?
