I have been looking for a card of Trot listed as 2001 Pawtucket Red Sox Dunkin' Donuts Jumbo Montage NNO. I have never seen the cards but see some listed on Beckett. I found a web site of a guy claiming to own most any minor league set and his first response was that it doesn't exist. Just wondering if any one else might know about the set.
Here is the site I found http://minorleaguesingles.com/

If Dave Weber says it doesn't exist, there's probably about a 98% chance he is correct. He is the overall expert in the hobby. That's not to say there isn't stuff that exists that he doesn't know about (like those Tucson Jones Photos I picked up recently), but by and large, he is The Man. If Bob Lemke had a question about modern minor league cards, he would ask Dave Weber.

However, given the nature of the set, Dave has a habit of not hanging on to the team photos that tend to come with those sets after he has separated the cards, so it's entirely possible he just tossed it and didn't consider it a card, like he did with the 1990 Columbus Clippers perforated team set photo.

You need to find someone who still has the set intact.

I would try Steve at STB Sports... www.stbsports.com

While Dave Weber is the king of minor league singles, Steve might be more likely to have the set intact, and thus more likely to have the set at all.

This appears to be what you are looking for:

http://www.stbsports.com/index.php?productID=3610

Here is beckett's description, they both appear to be the same thing in my opinion:

This attractive set, sponsored by Dunkin' Donuts and The Providence Journal, consists of 30 standard-sized perforated cards and a jumbo photo montage cover sheet all distributed together as one giant fold-out sheet. The 30 cards feature members of the AAA Pawtucket Red Six and the jumbo montage features all-time Pawtucket greats like Nomar Garciaparra and Roger Clemens. The perforated cards are unnumbered and checklisted in alphabetical order by player's last name (save for the manager and coaches which begin the set).

Do you know what years the DAV cards were produced for the majors? I have two Andruw's from 2004 and 2005, and would like to know if I am missing more years. Any help would be appreciated.
