Someone in this thread posted a Ripken ..

I had one of these framed sets along time ago wish I had kept it. The cards were different than the scans I see. The letters in Stand and Deliver were red not silver.

At least I got the Ripken part right ::facepalm::

1997 Stand & Deliver Frank Thomas Rainbow. Anybody know where the gold with silver lettering came from?

Regular, ????, From Redemption Framed Set

That's nice! Those with the red foil are next to impossible to find. I think we all decided those were the ones that were from the Framed Set only, but no matter what, it's a tough find. Putting that one on the 'bay?? Should do well with it if you do.

Makes me wonder how many people don't know what they have, how many pissed off wives threw away rare cards, how many have been burnt to a crisp in fires etc etc after seeing cards you haven't seen in a while. I can't find certain cards with a print run in the hundreds

That's why I'm careful not to say something doesn't exist just because I haven't seen it. Some of this stuff is just so rare. I do try to do my due diligence though. It's tough because a lot of the "guides" do have blatant mistakes and omissions.

Speaking of which, I meant to ask this question earlier. Does anybody have a 1997 Donruss Limited Star Factor subset Limited Exposure parallel without the refraction, ie: Non-Glossy? I know the Counterparts subset had that error, but I've never seen any others. I think the print run is supposed to be 40 of the Star Factor LE, and with a print run that small I'd be surprised if there is indeed a LE and a LE without refraction...

Sweet Cammy! I am digging the Pacific Parallels lately!

They're cool cards. I just realized the Hoffman mania doesn't belong in this thread. :mrgreen:

Did I read somewhere that 1998 Metal had 1/1 versions called Gem Masters? If so does anyone have one they would like to show off? I would like to see the pattern if it is anywhere similiar to Precious Metal Gems.

That El Duque would have been a strong card in its day.

Took a few years to finally track down the premier club.

How many boxes did you buy? Those would have been awesome hits back in the day let alone 13 years later. Amazing to still see great cards coming of older wax. Congrats!

I bought 2 boxes of 1998 Leaf R&S and pulled the Tatis, the El Duque came out of a single pack that was packaged in a value bag my local LCS makes. 10 assorted packs for $20 with most coming from decent products spanning 15 years.
