Don't shoot the messenger, please! Again, playing reconciliation with my collection. I noticed a VAR Note2 that was placed on a single card (yeah, no Note1, go figure). Anyhow, it was annotating that the copyright line had a single *. Well, mine has ** and, in fact, a majority of my set has different * numbers than the scans. In other words, looks like this set also has * and ** VARs for the copyright line. Can anyone else confirm?

This is one of my favorite all-time sets - its design speaks baseball to me - and I am strongly considering trying to complete it. I thought my biggest issue was going to be ensuring I had the correct backs to cards, now this. At least an asterisk is bigger than a period.
Well, never mind, I just realized this was about the Glossy Rookies set not the base. Been awake since 3:00 a.m. and now have to get ready for work.

3 - Tim Belcher - Los Angeles Dodgers
Two Stars:
10 - Paul Gibson - Detroit Tigers
12 - Darrin Jackson - Chicago Cubs
