The Struggle Is Real - 1991 Fleer

So after three boxes I still come up THREE CARDS SHORT!.

333 Darnell Coles
4 Todd Burns

That's really no a collation problem. It's just dumb luck. I certainly don't see buying another box just for those three, and no one I know of stocks commons from junk era sets.

By chance anyone have these classic gems lying around to spare?

In 1992, I discovered that you could get the complete set when purchasing an Ultra box....then, I got another box...same thing.

It was a little too automatic for me...I would almost want to be in your place...needing just a few, very frustrating cards. The chase was over before it started.

But maybe that's just me.

And, thanks to the kindness of 58Pinson, I am now the proud owner of a COMPLETE set of 1991 Fleer cards.

Check that one off the bucket list!
I love the members on this board.

Now you need to put together the variation set. If you break jumbo-cello boxes (hot pink, I believe), they come from a different printer and feature minor-to-major variations of every card in the wax/rack/factory issue.
