I got one set which is all I needed - unlike you investor types who
bought a few cases hoping to cash in later ;-)

Ayuh, and my wife still hasn't forgiven me for using the rugrats
college education fund on those cards ...

| I picked up a pack tonight since they were 1.20$, but I got a Sanders
All-Pro insert in it - sorry Jeff no Rypien's.

I like the blue inserts, good change from all that black. Costco's
has boxes for $23.99, more than baseball was but I guess because
the packs have 17 cards in them. Fleer did a nice job again.

448.7 | Good wax box distribution ! | FUTURE::JST_ONGE | John St.Onge USDSL DTN 275-2715 | Sun Jun 28 1992 14:50 | 6 |
| Good distribution in the box I opened. Only missing 9 cards out of a
480 card set. Also only missing two checklists for my checklist col-
lection. Glenn, I had 8 extra Chargers for you ;-) The new card stock
Fleer uses is nice.

| I bought a jumbo box last nite at a pretty good price,$47.96. The
regular price is $1.99 a pack. there are 32 cards,and you can get lucky
and get a Rookie Sensation or a Rypien card,all total I got 3 Rookie
Sensations,and 4 Mark Rypiens.The all Pro-Vision cards look prettygood
too.I like these better than last years cards.
Jeff I got dups on (Rypien) card #4.
Saint what #'s do you need ?

448.9 | jumbos! jumbos! where?? | DDIF::TANCILL | long may you run | Wed Jul 01 1992 15:44 | 9 |
|
Where did you find jumbos John, i haven't seen them around yet. Is
it typical jumbo distribution: wholesalers only (not hobby dealers),
find them in magazine/book stores, drug stores, grocery stores?
jeff
p.s. thanx for the "Ryp", talk to you via mail about trading these...

448.10 | more ?'s | DDIF::TANCILL | long may you run | Wed Jul 01 1992 15:45 | 4 |
|
Oh Yeah, meant to ask, what do the sensations look like? Blue and
gold also? Like basbeall ones or different? How many in the subset?
|
448.11 | sensations | DDIF::TANCILL | long may you run | Wed Jul 01 1992 20:38 | 19 |
|
Well, I'll answer my own questions. I got some at the same local
Hallmark card store that carried the baseball jumbos, same packaging
except blue, looks like same distribution channels.
I got 7 rookie sensations and 3 Rypiens (that's pronounced RIPen for
all you non-skins fanatics). The sensations are very nice. Color
photo in a "rasied" tilted rectangle on a green football field
background. Red and blue stripe at top with rookie sensations
in gold and a gold football. The player's name is at the bottom
in gold lettering on a maroon colored stripe.
I'll try and post a partial checklist later, 20 card subset
in all. I think the good news here is that these should stay
more reasonable in price at shows since most dealers and collectors
around here seem to poo-poo anything football.

| I checked the checklist under the 49ers,and did not see Joe Montana
listed,does anyone know what the reason is ?
John M.
Good luck Jeff on your findings,some guys are just lucky ;-)

| There a lot of stars etc. who sign exclusive contracts with NFL Properties
and don't belong to the NFLPA (player's association). If the card company
doesn't have a contract with NFL Properties, then they can't have that
player in the set. I have a feeling this is why Joe isn't in the Fleer set
this year.
