Not an insert, but since I see a promo...I found this in a stack recently.

Congrats on the pick up! I remember you discussing those well over a year ago

 

[BunchOBull]

Do you know the checklist on those SportsCubz?

I remember in the late '90s a bunch of Frank Thomas proshooters test issues selling for dirt...I never picked one up. I don't know why. I wish I would have now.

I found these in a box of 90's stuff today. Not rare 1:27 Hobby packs. I don't know how well the scan will turn out because of the Holo.

I'll post some other stuff from the box later.

A couple more '95 Collectors Choice & Upper Deck Trade Cards.

Nope! Checklist is below

Thanks! I had never seen one until this came up. I remember that discussion. Nobody except one person even knew what they were!

Its still pretty! I managed to track down an early printing plate (1998 Topps Gallery). Hard as heck to find older ones

LaBlueFan, I'm pretty sure I have that same preferred Hideo Nomo card but from '98 Collections. I think it's the prized collections version that Beckett says only has 55 sets printed. I'll have to dig it up and see if I can get a scan. After seeing the price of the other Nomo a little bit back, it makes me wonder if it would be worth something.

Does anyone else have a '98 Donruss Prized Collections Preferred they could post for comparison?

I too would like to see a scan of one of these cards. It's the last one I need to complete the six-card parallel for '98. MP showed off a couple of '97 Pinnacle Inside Diamond Editions, too. That's in my top five cards that I would LOVE to find.

Very nice pickup there! Is it made from cardboard or some other kind of material perhaps? From the scan it kinda looks like a mouse pad to me.

I figured it was going to be like you said, a mousepad. However, it's actually some type of cardboard!

Refractor version, looks 10x better in person.

I have a need to validate scotty's post. Refractor looks amazing compared to the regular:
