275.0. "1991 Score Football" by TEMPE::RABINO () Tue May 21 1991 21:13

    
     Those 1991 Score football cards are some good looking cards.
    I guess they are made by the Star Co. Has anybody seen these
    cards? They have some Dream Team cards like the Score baseball
    they are very colorful.
     I seen them selling for $.75 a pack at first now they're going
    for $.50. They're worth it.

    I think I read in one of the publications mentioning
    that they used their photographers. Their meaning
    Star Co. But they are nice looking cards though. Are'nt 
    they?

    Yes, they are. I seen the boxes going for
    $19.00 apiece but each dealer is different
    as we all know. They're worth it! I'm
    waiting to see how much they'll be going
    for in the Beckett.

    Think they'll be $14 by June?
275.6Score Missing Alot & Alot of DupsBSS::G_MCINTOSHULTRIX NETWORKS, CSC/CSThu May 30 1991 15:3710
    I went through my box of Score and you talk about missing alot of cards
    and alot of duplication.  I'm missing 58 cards and have alot of
    duplication.  
    
    My ProSet box was pretty well filled.  I'm missing 11 cards from that, 
    that I know of.
    
    If anyone wants to do some trading.....

275.7Nice Score Cards.EBBV03::MONDALTOFri May 31 1991 09:538
    I picked up 2 boxes last nite for $16.00 ea.,and I have to agree that
    they are a good looking card,also there are many many dups.
    
    Is score going to call back any cards,or hasn't the rumor got out yet
    that they were calling back 13 cards the same way( Proset did ) ?
    I talked to 4 different dealers from 4 different towns and they said
    that Proset does not know anything about the writeup in SCD. Again we
    had to pay for the rumor ! 
275.893% distribution - I must of got lucky!SBGPX2::BELISLEMike Belisle MRO4-1/H20 297.3324Fri May 31 1991 11:189
	Duplicates are going to be part of any set that comes out in two
	series. For examples; there are 576 cards in a box, Score football
	series I has only 440 cards. So I'm not sure why everyone is 
	complaining about dups.. I opened my box last night and got 93%
	of the set.... Now you can't ask for anything better that that.

	I wish these companies would just come out with the whole set at
	once. But then they wouldn't make all the money.

    Does anyone have a Score Football Series I checklist?  
    
    I never saw one in SCD, although I did see ProSet and Fleer.
    
    Thanks.....Glenn

    Take a good look around card shows, I saw both series I and II selling
    for $7 a box just last weekend at a show.  I have completed two sets,
    and I'm almost positive I saw Score 91' sets selling for $20, but they
    might have been last years.

    Wake up rjk, the factory sets have been out for a couple weeks now.

    show  for $16.  Supposed cost to this dealer was $15.

    Anybody who might want some unopened boxes to store for a while just
    take a look around at shows.  I picked up 6 boxes of Series 1 and 6 of
    series 2 for $3!!! a box at a show this weekend.  Shows you how much
    their value has dropped.  I also bought 2 completed factory sets at the
    same table for $10.

    Would someone please tell me about this 1991 Score Young Superstars
    subset.  Did they have 1990 Young Superstars?  I haven't seen this
    subset sold in store?
    
    Obviously there are Chargers involved in this set.

    The Young Superstars sets are sets available through a mail-in
    offer on the back of Score WaxPacks.
    
    It's usually a 40-card set, VERY high gloss, and the design is
    usually a lot nicer than the design they do their "real" set with.
    
    Sets started out at $4.95, and now cost $6.95
    
    Dealers can by them by the caseload, and some do.
    
    The only one that's every done anything is the the 1990 Score
    Young Superstars of Hockey (Lindros, Federov, Jagr, etc.) -- all
    the others can almost always be found from a dealer for LESS than
    the mail-in offer.
    
    Yes, they had a FB set for last year, and this year.  I don't
    believe they had one for '89 -- their inaugral football year, but
    could be mistaken.
    
    I will check my SYSFB sets from last year and this for you to see
    if there are any Chargers.
    
    Unfortunately Glenn, these are sold only as complete sets, and because
    they rarely attain any value, are hardly ever broken up.  You'll
    probably have to buy a whole set to get any Chargers.

    OK Roy, I'm with you on this.  I also confirmed that there were Young
    Superstar sets in 1990 and 1991.  I'll find them somewhere, that's for
    sure.  
    
    I know that Butts, Cornish and Seau are in the 1991 set, but no idea
    about the 1990 set.  If you don't mind, I'd sure appreciate it if you'd
    go through your 1990 set and let me know what Chargers are in there.
    
    Thanks alot!
