Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #2

[Bane50]

Almost bought the Max ungraded last year. Sig looked different so I passed. It is the only other McGwire I have ever seen. Good pickup.

Finally picked this card up to complete my Epix sets, by far the hardest to find of all of them.

Picked up this 1995 printing error as well.

Got a biggie knocked off my list!

Sweet Card!! Congrats on the pickup!

Recent pickup...1997 Studio Masterstrokes Jumbo Executive Promo XXXX/5000

Ross, that is too cool. I've never seen any McGwires like that, I wonder if it was only certain players. Killer '96 GM unredeemed as well! I think I picked up one of those a couple months ago. I've been slow to scanning my newest pickups, but had a lot the past couple months. Have been catching up on scanning tonight:

Sexy stuff Jay!

Sexy stuff Jay!

Thanks Ross! Also, thanks everyone for the nice comments on the Max auto. I don't know where all these are, as there is supposed to be 40 of each player. The only McGwire I had seen before was the one Bane50 referenced, and I thought that was fake as well and stayed away.

Fresh scan, sending these to BGS soon:

How do u tell class levels in 1998 Topps gold label?

How do u tell class levels in 1998 Topps gold label?

From Beckett.com

The basic Class 1 set is a gold set featuring fielding poses in the background

The gold class 2 cards were issued one every two packs. Each player is featured in a running pose in the background. The class 2 cards were printed in a sparkling silver text on the front.

The gold class 3 cards were issued one every four packs. Each player is featured in a hitting pose (except for pitchers) in the background. These cards feature sparkling gold text on the front.

Looking for some help and information on a particular 90's card and I have a question about another.

What can anyone tell me about the 1995 Upper Deck Electric Diamond Gold cards? I have been looking for one of Chris Sabo for a long time and I have never seen one. Does anyone have an example of a 1995 Electric Diamond and Electric Diamond Gold so I can see the difference. I have a pretty good idea of what the difference is, but visuals are always good. Is there anyone who has any 1995 Upper Deck Electric Diamond Golds that may have a Sabo?

Out of curiosity, why are there 1992 Topps Gold and 1992 Topps Gold Winners? I have both and the only difference is one says Winners and the other doesn't. What's the difference/significance that they were both made?

 

[Bane50]

1992 Topps Gold were inserted in packs as inserts. They were also issued in a factory set with the Brien Taylor auto (12,000 made I believe).

The Winners were available to people that accumulated "Runs" in the Match the Stats game cards inserted in packs.

Thank you. I knew there had to be a reason for the difference. Post thanked.

Hopefully someone will be able to help with the 1995 Upper Deck Electric Diamond Gold now.

Just a foil difference on the Electric Diamonds. Silver foil vs. Gold Foil on name and UD Logo in homeplate.

Thanks Brad. I figured that was the only difference, but I wanted to see it to make sure. No if I could just find the Sabo gold, I'd be happy. :lol:
