I was breaking it for very cheap (nearly $100 shipped per at that time) documenting the numerous print runs or attempting to and chasing the Gills, Burr and Hologram. I was also under the impression that certain listed errors existed that are now all but confirmed not to exist. A ton of work went into documenting and cataloging the many variations and recurring print flaws in the set.

Ismail's 1991 card did not have an error/variation. Several pro players in 1991 Pro Set who did not have NFLPA contracts had their cards changed to remove the NFLPA logo on back. Jim Kelly, Blair Thomas, Webster Slaughter, Bernie Kosar, Jeff George, Andre Collins, etc.

10 Cases eh, were you putting together sets and selling them cheap hoping to find some of the rare inserts? I've seen the Stanley Cup one before and I know that was a rare pull but not so much about the others. Well you learn something new everyday.

The football set from that year had the Rocket Ismail nflpa logo/no logo, correct? That was kind of popular up here after he signed with the Argos.

Thank you but I have opened over 10 sealed cases and countless wax boxes and have never pulled the Burr error. I've only found copies in random junk boxes (twice).

Even the Stanley Cup holo is an unlikely pull in 10 cases.

It may not be many cards but 1990 Pro Set Hockey (and Football) have incredibly rare and valuable cards to hunt for.

If you want, and don't mind waiting until November, I can get you some series I boxes for $20 CDN ($15 US) at the next Sportscard Expo in Toronto? I saw some at the last show in May had no interest for myself though. I'd be willing to bet these are all the later corrected versions of that release, but until the packs are opened can't be 100% sure. Might even pull one of the Santa Clause insert cards?
