Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

[RustyGreerFan]

I've been collecting ARod for 16 years now and just saw the first one today. I bought it. I didn't even know if there was one of him or not in the set. There was discussion about these variations a while back. Whoever was leading the conversation had a Griffey and was inquiring about them as well. I don't recall what was ever established.

I just looked back in this thread and I didn't see where anything was established...

The same seller posted another one if anyone is interested.

I thought your username was familiar - are you still chasing Dilfer cards? I think you and the Mark Brunell collector have the most amazing football player collections I've ever seen.

Thanks for the compliment on my collection. I don't know if anybody's football collection comes near Jaderock's Brunell collection, though, that thing is unbelievable. I really do need to scan my whole collection someday but that'll take forever. I am definitely still chasing Dilfer cards, I just don't often see any pop up that I need. There is another guy who looks like he doesn't collect anymore and has most of the 1/1's locked up in his collection.

Had this card for a while and no nothing about it. Anybody know anything about these:

Got this Roberto Alomar in and it was what I was hoping it was - a 1998 Donruss Collections Preferred Prized Collections /55. Not bad for $5, but now I'm thinking I could have had it for 99 cents if I had bid on the auction instead of hitting the BIN.

Also got in this great lot for just $20! I had seen these cards on Sportsbuy from Brickman for probably two years. But he listed them so oddly - calling Fractal Matrix Fractal Foundations and saying that the print run on Die Cuts was 3250 instead of 200.

1998 Elite Status /100

1998 Leaf Curtain Calls Fractal Matrix Silver X-Axis Die Cut /400

1998 Leaf Curtain Calls Fractal Materials Plastic X-Axis Die Cut /200

1998 Leaf Curtain Calls Fractal Materials Plastic X-Axis Die Cut /200

(and a 1998 Black Diamond Rookies Quadruple Junior Seau /100 for good measure)

Picked up a pretty ridiculous collection last week. I will break it into a couple posts. Not sure if anything is for sale right now. I went half with a buddy of mine and he wants to just throw everything on ebay. So that might be where you can find it all. So without further adieu, let's begin:

1996 Ultra

1997 Fleer:

Hey guys - instead of trying to resell my box of 1998 Topps Tek to make some bucks, I have just asked FCB for permission to do a group box break. For more info check out my Topps Tek thread. I got the box for $120 and am sharing the value.

1997 Fleer:

Those are the harder to find versions that have the "hanging chads," or the helmets and hat brims. It appears Fleer did away with them, for a more sleek design because of production or condition sensitivity.

Thanks for the heads up. I had no idea there were 2 versions.

Any idea on how I would list these? Would collectors know them by "hanging chad"? Would they be promos or samples since they weren't packed out I assume? Thanks for the help.


Also found these in the lot. Thought they were pretty cool:

Super sweet find on all of these jbrown. You got everything else from 96 Ultra so I have to ask if you have any Thunderclap Gold Medallions.

Sorry I do not. I think the only gold meds he didn't have were the thunderclap and hitting machines.

That is an amazing lot there jbrown!

I just barely got this Jeter last night with my max bid. I've seen them go for $125, so maybe with a prettier scan and a correctly titled listing I can make a few bucks. Or trade it...
