That Thomas leaf patch is outstanding. I managed a card shop for 5+ years from 2000-2005 and I've never seen one. What year is that?

Yes sir, 1997, 6 card set. Each card limited to 100. That's my only copy because I'm building it on the cheap. Some members have complete, to near complete, sets. I picked this one up for $100 BIN, and it was a steal.

Wow!

6 card set of Thomas or different players?

 

[George_Calfas]

Just closed.....and I lost.
[ebay:2d3y423p]120670114991[/ebay:2d3y423p] Mind you a Sosa and Vlad 9.5 are each sitting unsold on ebay for far less. Dont underestimate player collectors.

 

[BunchOBull]

Wow!

6 card set of Thomas or different players?

All Thomas, home jersey, away jersey, bat, cap, glove, and sweatband.

I mean wow! That has to be awesome as a player collector to have a set like that to pursue!

I think you guys got most of the main ones! THe only few I could think of was
Super Raves (/25) compared to just Raves, but they also could be included in one group
Fractal Materials z-axis(/20) and diamond-axis die cuts (/20)
Finest had a few RARE refractor inserts that are popular, for Gwynn it was the "The Man" refractors (/75).
Cramer's Choice Parallels /5 up to /100
Aficionado 1st Pitch Previews (not an insert, but one that always comes up)

Pacific "silvers", Pinnacle Mint Gold coins, 1998 UD3 die-cuts (some),
I wonder if we could even get a consensus on what a "Top Level" insert was... Good list so far, though!!

 

[MOFNY]

I always wanted to see a solid gold 97 or 98 Pinnacle Mint coin.
