While the total universe of Tango Eggs is about 500+ cards, if memory serves, Jennings was one of the most numerous in that group. So is Bescher. Of the large "find" of about 500 cards made around 1990 most were in superb uncirculated shape and graded well as a result. So while Tango Eggs are really scarce compared to many tobacco/caramel issues from the same time period, when you do find one it is likely to be graded and in really nice shape.

Our friend Brian is reputed to have more than a few Tango eggs.

Actually, there are 20 known players. The Tango Egg listing begins on page 379 of the SCD 2007 catalog and concludes on page 380. Of the 20 players known, ten of them have totals of less than ten examples each and several have only 1-3 examples.
