1992 Star Ryne Sandberg Baseball Forum

Hi all,

Looking for some assistance in differentiating the Regular vs. Glossy versions of these sets. Attached is what I presume is the Glossy version: high sheen and slightly thinker than a standard card (second picture - a “normal” card on left, my Glossy card on right) Based on that:

1. Does the Regular version have no sheen / flat? Is it standard cardboard stock and weight?
2. Does anybody have a comparison of the Regular versus the Glossy?

The versions of this set that I have are in individual (assumingly original) poly bags. Poly bags have no labels, unlike other bagged Star sets that usually identify Glossy and Print Run. 
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you! 

Yes, your assumpion is correct.  That is definitely the glossy version, where the regular sets have the flat matte finish.

That is definitely the Glossy version.

I have seen where the labels that were attached to the bags are now falling off. That could have been the case with this one.

Were you ever able to get a side-by-side comparison of the two?

I did not. I have yet to personally come across a non-glossy version of this set or seen what it looks like in a comparison against the Glossy.
