89.2540 cards in this set now?PNO::KAPLANsubtlety..SUBTLETY..<<S U B T L E T Y>>Tue Oct 10 1989 13:484
    A local ad lists this set as containing 540 cards.  I have a set with
    440.  Does this mean there are 100 more cards (special or otherwise)?
    Are there several new subsets?

89.3More QuestionsSAGE::JACUNSKITue Oct 10 1989 16:287
    What's the going price for a Pro_Set pack?  Is the 441-540 series
    mixed in with 1-440, or is it available separately from dealers
    like the baseball card update sets.  I think these cards are very
    nice except for the thin stock they used.
    
    Thanks,
    Rick
89.5The official card?CRUISE::JBONINJohn Bonin, U.S. Data Warehouse DBAWed Oct 11 1989 11:497
    These cards claim to be the "Official NFL card", put out by the
    NFL. Is that true? Does it make the other cards, like Topps,
    "Unofficial" and less value.
    
    They did a *really* nice job on these cards!

    It turns out that the Rozell cards are an error. They were not
    scheduled to be released(yeah, right) but some made it out. The
    shop in Yakima my brother in law frequents sells it for $7. The
    reason they were not supposed to go out is because the new commissioner
    has not been sellected yet. So.....they are out there in very small
    quantities.
      I'm interested in the announcer cards, Darts anyone?

    ... have you heard about the Rozelle "FF" variation .... the card
    pictures the beloved commissioner making a gesture with one on his
    fingers .... the card is captioned "Farwell to Football" 8^) !!!

    You know, I thought I had written a new note on Upperdecks since
    the card does not specifically have it's own topic and it just 
    vaporized. Did I get "moder-edited" or what? It didn't get moved
    to a different note just blasted out of existance. I think it's
    a communist plot to overthrow DEC!

89.11Wondered about that too!SAGE::JACUNSKIThu Oct 12 1989 14:571
    Al, would that be Note 623? Is it being held hostage perhaps?
89.12WLDWST::DRAKEFri Oct 13 1989 19:114
    I knew it! Who set my note to VAPORIZE?! Mr. Moderator!!! Where
    are you?

89.13NO WAX BOX FOR MEBOSOX::STOBERKAPT. U.S.S. TWEENERThu Nov 02 1989 12:109
I'm glad I was not dreaming about the poor distribution in the wax boxes.
My ratio was worse than 10-4 I could not believe it. AH but what the hell
I think there not bad at all. Any one willing to swap let me know I also have 
a load of Topps 89 Football that can be had only need 8 to complete the set.

89.15Super Bowl CardsNUTMEG::JACUNSKITue Oct 02 1990 17:1213
    I only opened two packs of the 89 Pro Set football cards before
    deciding to buy the whole set when it became available. The Super Bowl
    cards in each of those two packs were XVII (Redskins vs. Dolphins). I
    also have about a dozen unopened packs, and the same Super Bowl XVII
    card is showing through the top of EVERY ONE of them. What gives? Did
    each pack in a given box have the same S.B. card, or was this just a
    fluke?
    
    I realize this is ancient history, but I'd still like to know the
    answer if any of you experts can help.
    
    Thanks,
    Rick
