Hello. I was inspired by another member on TCDB to go out and buy and sort a collection of cards. Long story short, most were easily identifiable on here. These ones I am drawing a blank on though.
They are all punched on the lower right corner on the front (similar to many other sets from Pinnacle Brands during this time frame). This goes right through the center of the Pinnacle logo on the back. After much searching and research, I came up empty handed. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Probably were samples or promos - this is how they did it before printing that they were right on the cards. Problem is - anyone with a hole punch can "create" these samples for any card in the set, so we can't list them.
We have listed other ones when we have had evidence of which ones were included in a actual sealed pack from Pinnacle. In this case however, no proof, no listing.

Exactly. With Pinnacle's Score set from the same year, it is very clear which ones were promos. You can find that info virtually everywhere. It was done with a larger diameter hole, some other sets had several small holes in the shape of the Pinnacle logo, or even clipped corners.
Oh well... still holding out hope that someone may have some info. These 3 are also available for trade if anyone is interested, too.

Pinnacle handed out one advertising and eight player promo cards at Hockey Card shows for the 1995-96 Zenith set.
Two of the nine cards are already listed on the database.

And there's some good proof about their distribution. So good, in fact, that I have created the set for them (and I am in the process of moving the images and collection data for the 2 cards already listed).
Set & checklist here: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/266206/1995-96-Zenith---Samples

We try. :)
Special thanks to SDC for finding that listing which really helped. He's a big part of why this community is so good.
I just dislike these cards floating around at the end of sets, especially when they can go into a set themselves. So that's why the new set. ALmost done with the migrations of the "loose" cards.

Thank you Dan for taking the time to make this. I have never made a checklist before. It's been a while since I got the permission to do so, but don't quit remember the exact details, so I may be consulting with you or other members in the near future. I will also upload images for the 3 cards I own from this set when I am able.

Whenever you find you have a checklist that we don't have, drop me a message and I'll work with you to get it loaded. Start small!
