Looking for some clarity here as I rely on baseballcardpedia for information when I'm not familiar with a set.

Baseballcardpedia states that the 1998 Topps Gold Label inserts Home Run Race, that the red parallel is serial numbered to 61.

I've seen several red Griffey, McGwire, Sosa... none of them are serial numbered. Is the pedia wrong? Anyone have any idea what the print run was if the pedia is wrong?

Thanks, looking to buy one, *think* I'm getting a good price but the card is not serial numbered. I've actually never seen a serial numbered one, even after a google image search. So just checking with the experts here on their opinions.

I bought an unnumbered McGwire a couple years back. I thought it was cool but sat on eBay with no one buying it. Picked it up for a fraction of what the numbered ones go for, so I don’t think they command anywhere near what the numbered ones do.

I looked at PWCC data and none of their photos show any numbering for the red labels. No image search turns up any numbered ones either. Given how infrequent they turn up for sale, I don’t think any were numbered on card. We have to assume they are all /61.
