Is this a parallel set or what? Appreciate the help! ------------------------------- "The world is made for people who aren't cursed with self-awareness".

I had a couple of different cards like this (Playoff and Collector's Edge cards) that were stamped similarly, and I found that they were not so much parallels as they were made just for the convention. Here's mine... http://www.tradingcarddb.com/Subsets.cfm/sid/89017/1997-Playoff-Contenders---Pennants-Orange-Felt-Chicago-National

I was at that National. Most of the manufacturers had booths set up where, if you bought their product from a dealer at the show, and opened the stuff at their booth, they would stamp one card from each pack or whatever with that stamp. I had a TON of these because I love that concept. Others think it's defacing the card. I think that it's customizing it.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.
