Default Winners

Zach-- I think there is a thread on here where Bob ( bobsbbcards) posted 14 of them. He later got April and I think posted her too.

Sorry to see you exit as a Topps and variant collector Doug, but congrats on the sale. Now tell me about the 92 Winners set

edited---is that the Topps 1992 Gold Winners set. I have one of those

I have to pull mine out and scan it.

According to my notes, there are three 1992 sets :

1 - the regular set with 792 cards

2 - a "gold" set with 793 cards, I don't remember what the extra card was, and I believe these cards were inserted in regular packs. But, it may have been possible to buy a gold set, I forget.

3 - a "gold winner" set with 792 cards. In the regular packs there was a scratch off lotto style card. If you scratched the correct spots you would win a free pack of "gold winner" cards. You mailed in the scratch off card and they sent you back a pack of cards, I don't remember how many cards were in that pack, but it was wrapped in clear plastic, with no markings that I remember. If you got a bright enough light, you could see the correct spots to scratch off, particularly if you sat in a dark place, like a closet. I won hundreds of those packs, and put together a complete set.

Default Examining Cards in a Dark Closet

This likely explains much about you Doug.

In 1992, besides the Topps regular set and Traded set, you could get the Gold Promo sheet of 9, the Gold set of 793, 793 being the Brien Taylor auto from factory sets ( very valuable today :-{ ), the Gold Winners set of 792. The Traded Gold set, the Kids set of 132, a Micro set ( regular issue in miniature), the Triple Header Photo Balls, the 1991 Major League Debut set, and a Pre Production set of 9 that came in some factory sets...and The Golden Spikes card of Phil Nevin.

I know this only because up to 1994 I collected everything listed for Topps in SCD. This actually sounds worse that sitting in a dark closet looking at cards :-(
