358.1Score Baseball are out.DNEAST::WOODMAN_MIKEThu Jan 09 1992 21:503
    Score 92's are out, my dealer has them in.  The are selling for .75 a
    pack.  I didn't buy any, as I was buying a few other items.  He said
    they haven't been selling well at all.
358.3nice job againDDIF::TANCILLlong may you runFri Jan 10 1992 13:279
    I bought a few pack for 55 cents and once again Score has put out
    a nice card, got two of the rickey henderson dream teams, if I see
    another I think I'll heave.  Other than that though the cards are
    another high quality. low price effort by Score.  you gotta love these
    guys, although after collating a set last year, I'm waiting for the
    factory set so I'll get all the cards.

    Oh yeah, I didn't complain back then, because I bought the factory
    sets FOR the bonus cards.
    
    What I didn't like was that the fact that the bonus cards would be
    included was announced AFTER wax had already been distributed.
    
    Whereas in 1987 everyone KNEW the factory set (Fleer) was going to
    have the World Series card(s).

358.10Too bad about the trivia cardsTOLKIN::CHOYFri Jan 10 1992 18:329
    What?  No trivia cards?  Topps got rid of gum this year too!  Score
    got rid of Trivia cards in their football packs in 90 Series 2.  They
    actually asked dealers about that one since the Trivia cards were going
    to hold up release of Series 2.  
    
    I'll miss them.  I always liked the late 60s/early 70s Topps inserts.
    And those DiMaggio cards should be easier to come by.  At least Score
    eliminated the Hobby set/Retail set distinction.  The 91 sets are still
    widely available, BTW.

	RE: .12

	Excuse me Roy, nobody says that about my man Yaz! I grew up
	with Yaz as my hero. All my jerseys had number 8 on them. All
	my bats had Yaz's signatures on them. My hat was a red sox hat.
	I batted right handed, played left field. Whenever I see Yaz
	trotting around Fenway Park after his last game, I get all
	choked up..

	Yaz wasn't special? ya, right. I think you have him confused
	with Clemente. 8^))

	This guy was great! over 400 Home Runs, over 3000 hits. He
	defined the word STYLE!

	Anyway, getting back to Score and this subset. It's not going
	to make me buy Score Baseball, but it will have me looking for
	my favorite player of that decade.

    Yaz?  Special.  Bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha ...
    
    The only reason he did the things he did was because he stayed
    around for so long.
    
    This is one guy whose whole career basically rests on one year; 1967.
    
    
    Anyone with any knowledge knows that Rico Petrocelli carried those
    teams ....

    	Didn't Yaz bat lefty? Or was that another Yaz you're talking about?

    Ya your right. I always get confused as to which side is which. 8^)

    I pulled a YAZ Franchise card out of a pack of Score II last week.
    (#3 of 4).     How "rare" are these  cards?   I was told by one dealer
    that there was 1 per box.... another dealer said 5 per case.    
    
358.19FUTURE::JST_ONGEJohn St.Onge USDSL DTN 275-2715Sun Apr 05 1992 21:506
    A friend of mine got two of the Yaz cards in two boxes he opened.
    I got card #4 which shows Mantle, Musial and Yaz on the same card.
    I opened two boxes by the way and only got one of these cards. So
    it may not be one per box, but more than 5 per case probably.

358.20I got a Yaz!SUBDLS::LUND"Scoop"Fri May 08 1992 17:425
I bought 4 packs of Score II cards yesterday and got a Yaz franchise card!
The value of this card in my price guide is $65.00.  Is the price expected to 
go up on these cards?

    Prices at shows have been around 15$ for the Franchise cards, with the
    Mantle around 20$. It'll probably drop since they are saying the cello
    boxes yield one or two of these cards. At least that's what one dealer
    said.

358.23Score Factory Sets OutFUTURE::JST_ONGEJohn St.Onge USDSL DTN 275-2715Sun May 17 1992 23:035
    The bonus cards in the Score Factory sets are pretty nice.  You get
    7 cards of the World Series (one for each game), 4 more Cooperstown
    cards (same design as last year's), 3 Joe D's and 3 Yaz's.
