I just picked up a PSA10 Griffey UD 2nd year error card with no copyright on the back. I never knew this card existed till recent, but had to own it. It has a low pop of only 17. Here is a link if you guys arent familiar with it. This card is not mine...just a random one on eBay.

Peter Max has long been a favorite artist, so when I saw the 1997 Topps Gallery cards I wanted one of the signed cards. They are pretty outrageous, though, so i figured to get one of the crappier players (Albert Belle, anyone?), but I got really lucky on this auction:



Fun factoid: Max signed the cards before the coating was applied.

Well, he signed the numbered ones before the gloss was applied. There are a lot of those signed after the fact.

Why would you return it? Was it advertised wrong?

It's possible the owner was misinformed even though he was shady as hell sometimes, but that was last time I got to go there.

1998 Pinnacle Epix

A final selection of 24 Epix cards was slated for inclusion in 1998 Pinnacle Certified, but the manufacturer went bankrupt before that product shipped. However, a full set of Epix cards from the Pinnacle Certified set emerged on the secondary market nearly 20 years after Pinnacle's bankruptcy.

Cards marked with a "C" were scheduled for insertion into packs of 1998 Pinnacle Certified, but were never officially released. However, in October 2017, a full set of Epix cards intended to be released in 1998 Pinnacle Certified emerged on the secondary market, with some players having multiple copies surface.

E1 Ken Griffey, Jr. C

2005 Donruss

Inside View
This insert set was, for reasons that still remain unclear, withdrawn from production. However, again for reasons unclear, some Inside Views made their way into packs.

Originally, each card was to have been serial-numbered to 1000 copies with a Black parallel numbered to 50. The cards that made their way into packs are NOT serial-numbered.

It appears that anywhere from five to 25 copies of each card made their way into packs. A parallel refractor-like, "rainbow" version of these cards exist, however the print run is unknown.

1997 Topps Mint
( no real info on theses, but more than likely, Pinnacle had the rights to the Product named " Mint in 1997, so Topps had to scrap the product and came out with Topps Stars 'N Steel in 1998
