1994 Topps Pre-Production Send-Away Card

[deweyinthehall]

Thanks all for the information - I have both versions of the 1994 pre-production set. I keep both in my 1993 master set binder since they were issued with the 1993 factory set.

If I could learn which version was given to hobby press, I would move that to the 1994 master set album.

If one came in a factory set, and the other was given out by Topps, it still doesn't explain the red redemption certificate - if anyone knows anything, please pass it along!

A deeper cut on the variations in this set, Carlos Quintana comes in four (4) versions:

Green wedge on front 1993 copyright hand-drawn 4 over the 3
Green wedge on front 1994 copyright
Brown wedge on front 1993 copyright hand-drawn 4 over the 3
Brown wedge on front 1994 copyright

I have never opened my 93 factory sets. I have 3. The regular one and the inaugural stamped sets for the Rockies and the Marlins. There was also a 2nd 94 Factory set marketed as Bilingual. If what you have is to big to be from pack or boxed set, could it have been an insert in one of the Topps Magazines they published through 1993. I still have mine and can check tomorrow

Checked all of the 1993 issues of Topps Magazine and no such insert in them. Only other thought is that Topps issued a product called Full Shot Supers in 1993. The cards were 3 1/2 by 5. There are 21 cards in the set and SCD says they were packaged one each along with two regular packs of of 93 cards. I never saw or opened one of those packs
