Here's mine:

I actually don't know what SCAI is. I figured these were released in packs. Is SCAI a forerunner of the National? Or is/was it regional, more like the West Coast National?

I was hoping you would post this next. I remember in 1993 my LCS had a box. They were $20 a pack. Absolutely blew my mind.

1993 Topps Finest was another set that premiered before I had ever been to a card shop. I started going to card shops around 1995. I was caught up by Nomo-Mania and Mike Piazza. When I walked into the card shop I was looking at cards in cases, not in boxes.
