Let me know where to send the scans and I'll scan them away... :)

Good work edk and Gator!  I still say they all exist in all 4 versions.

I made a mistake. One of the scans Ed sent over off 542 was for something different - it was NOT of the not dot, 1 * version. That one still eludes us.

Bruno, with what we have seen so far, it seems like that's the case, but stranger things have happened, and we can't take that risk of adding something that may actually not exist. But we're REAL close. Ed just sent over a few more.

looks like my theory there may have been sheet(s) not printed for that version was wrong...

I just looked at varity kings listing on ebay and he shows the  #542 No period 1* on a list ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/1989-Donruss-Denotes-Inc-No-Gap-Glow-Backs-501-660-BC1-26-U-Pick-Listing-12-18/113695251373?hash=item1a78c3dbad:m:m8BB5GS5uS64VBa7r6tH3PQ )as available  but No picture. Im not willing to pony up $6.99 to find out. Someone else has a listing showing the backs of 25 cards but I cannot get a clear enough closeup on my PC to verify.

So after completing the eye scanning of some 16,000 cards in 4 days, I have now gone back and looked at the 4 sets and noting the cards that I am missing in any particular set that I am putting together.  The most common is complete, INC. / 2*.  The INC. / 1* is missing 9 cards.  The INC / 1* is short 5 cards (not surprising, 3 are of the Blue Jays).  And the rarest of the VAR, INC / 2* is missing 178 cards.

But why I am posting is that in my verification check, I found 2 cards that I thought did not have a "." to actually have the dreaded ".".  So if anyone has The VAR of INC / 2* of card #s 264 Gantner and 282 Niedenfuer, please confirm on this thread with a scan or PM Dan with said scan.  My apologies.

I have the #282 no period w/2*
