Just seeing this post. I just sent you an email. Thanks for thinking of our Team Collector group. We will give those cards a good home!

Going to start today opening the 1997 Pinnacle All-Star Edition box talked about a while ago
Labor intensive as always these packs will take me days to open as the box is not a priority
A lot of interesting inserts can be found in these packs that were not found in the original Score packs

Info about these sets can be found here 1997 PINNACLE ALL-STAR FANFEST


Pics of the box then part 2 of the packs- will open the frst 9 packs tonite, 2nd Tuesday, 3rd Weds and 4th on Thursday
Have other priorities right now. As you can see box is a little crunched in from travel and storage but looks fine

Pack pictures as always before attacking the box

Man oh man was that last pack just ruined. Back in tthe day I'd have confronted the Score rep
when he showed for the next order at the store, or called even. Cards should never be sent to customers like that
Even retail customers- I mean thats a burn and dump production run those last few packs

If I was still in my dealer days rep would have had a free box request for this trash drop off
Sticky is one thing- this box was on heat - should never left their 3rd party factory floor
Half the cards ruined by sticky. Included some nice inserts ( I'll take some pics)
While some stuff was fine, 3 of the 4 nine pack cells were trash
Upper right was the only non stick side

Pics when I get time. And @Ct Sox Fan = whenever Wayne = I'll send them when your back

 

[2014BESTSERVICE]

Gonna break the newest box stored forever and see if I can pull an elusive Clemens points I need. Believe theres plenty more of these cheap boxes in storage
