1990 Donruss Aqueous Test

Anyone have one or know of one, please let me know!

Thanks!!!

I had a "find" of 1981-1983 Fleer Proof sheets back in 1987. In the 100 or so sheets were 2 complete blank back proof sets (2 sheets to a set) of the 1981Fleer Stickers. The Rickey Henderson had his photo, but listed Steve Henderson Mets. There were a few other players that were different. I cut one set and sold the other set in an Alan Rosen Auction around 1989-90. Don't know if more than 2 exist but it was a really cool item! I think he was at the bottom corner of the sheet as well so it would have color bars.

I wish I took more pics and had a decent camera at the time. I took a few pics of the sheets and some of the unissued proofs, but most of those had bad flash spots. Things are so easy now with digital.

This is the card that I am looking for. I realize that none were signed. I need the redemption card.

I've been looking for a well centered NM+ 1978 Topps Burger King of Lou Whitaker. Haven't had much luck. The ones that pop up on Ebay are either in bad shape, well off-centered, or over-priced. Never had so much trouble with a $10 card.

I may have one of these. I'll have to dig around and get back to you...
