Nice card! Wish there was a Thome card like that.

There is a Thome card like that. It is card number 90.

Are you getting any takers on your "massage" requirement to see what promo cards you have for trade?

I just now say my mistake on the spelling of message. Damn these fingers. By the way I am getting messages and emails for promo trades. Do you need any? On another note. How do you tell the difference between the 1995 Stadium Club regular issue cards and the Pre Production ones?

LOL I was wondering about that!

Funny. I wonder if they really want to trade or just are interested in the massage? Not sure on the 1995 SC Promos, I'll let one of the promo experts tackle that.

I get a massage once a month from a qualified massage therapist. Appreciate you checking on the 1995 Stadium Club "Pre-Production" cards.

Text orientation on back.

Text orientation on back.

Can you be more specific please?

 

[jacksoncoupage]

Can you be more specific please?

Without an image handy, it's kind of hard to. The lines of text on back are oriented differently than the pack issued versions. The first line on back may end with a different word or number than the pack issued version due to how they broke up the body of text in the prototypes vs. how they did it for the pack issued version.

I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but i went to comc to check it out and found this:

After closer examination, it looks like they are a base & a virtual reality version ... could it be possible that is what you are talking about?

Appreciate the reply and info jacksoncoupage. The pack that I have (if it is indeed a pre-production pack) has Ivan Rodriguez on the back with card number 197 (same as his regular issued card). At first I thought it may be the foil difference (silver or gold) but I can't tell from any of the scans on eBay or other sites. The pack I have has gold foil if that helps.

I believe only the base cards were used for the pre-production set as far as I can tell.

Interesting. Love it but I always thought the real ones had the foil name. This makes me question the community's acceptance of back-doored having no name. Did collectors get these mixed up over the years?

Picked this up in a lot a few days ago, just arrived today:

I'd give a left kidney for an IROD one of these.

Since people are able to make much nicer, high quality customs with all sorts of effects (foils, refractors, etc), it would worry me to see a previously unknown "test" or "prototype" card surface. I always loved anything lenticular, so those would have been cool though.

I thought that to.
