Questions on the 1989 Donruss - Does the Inc. / Inc version exist with both the *Denotes Led League* and * Denotes Led League ?

What about the text placement variation?

I'm guessing these are out there due to various forms of distribution - factory sets, rack packs, etc...

Let me know your thoughts. Chris

In theory there are 8 variations of each card with combinations of INC/INC. */** and Large/Small gaps. In theory.

I can only personally confirm from my Puckett collection that six exist in his cards...

* INC Small Gap
* INC. Small Gap
* INC Large Gap
** INC Small Gap
** INC. Small Gap
** INC. Large Gap

I'm not sure that the following two actually exist...

* INC. Large Gap
** INC Large Gap

I looked through about 30% of the '89 Griffey on COMC (since there are 400+) and could not find either of those last two.

Thanks for the video post so awesome to see all those cards, really appreciate the time you spent. Makes me want to take some pics here soon and get some of my PC up to share.

So glad Griffey got the record for % into the Hall - we all know without his injuries that that HR record would have been his, nice to see him end on that HOF note

In honor of his 99% vote, I decided to go through my Griffeys, and "rank" my top 99 cards of him.

I kept having technical difficulties, so there are multiple videos of varying lengths, and the audio is pretty unbearable (mainly because I hate hearing myself talk on recordings) and I must've said "Really tough to find" about 700,000 times. If this isn't enough to discourage you, there are some pretty cool gems (in my biased opinion) in there.

We'd all love to see you do something similar.

Thanks for watching! If nobody here gives a ****, it's a waste of time. If a fellow Griffey collector enjoys even a small piece of it, totally worth it. It was actually easier than scanning/saving/posting.

Very cool stuff Goob! I especially like #1 on your list!

Yeah, I got it from this one guy I know.

I'm sure you'll recognize quite a few in there.

Just like the ud patches up to that point.
After those years i think it came a lot of material from ud,just almost imposible to keep up from 2003-2010.

Hey I'm mostly a video game collector but thought I may have an item with some cross appeal. It's a 22x28" thick display of Ken Griffey's Slugfest from the N64 days. Excellent shape, hardly any wear, about 1/4" thick (not a cheap poster). I was going to throw it on my eBay tomorrow but figured I'd ask if anyone here wanted it. $60 shipped to USA, $10 of which is probably shipping (can't be folded).

Even if no one wants it, still a sweet show of Griffey in his prime!

Thank you for the AWESOME videos @goobmcnasty! It's really cool to see cards that I normally wouldn't see.

You have a great collection!
