So what do you do with something like this ....................
http://puckjunk.com/2014/12/10/1994-95-action-packed-big-picture-promos/
The set was never produced so why is it even listed??? Its pretty bad that I have just figured this out but regardless I feel these red herrings should be dealt with someway, no?

Just the promotional cards should be listed in the 1994-95 set listings as a Promotional. The same thing happened with the 1994 Pro Set football. Promo cards for the upcoming set were distributed but Pro Set went out of business before the 1994 Pro Set cards were ever produced.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project. |

So this is from the article also
Big Picture never materialized. Nor did Mammoth, Badge of Honor or CoaStars, but those are stories for another day. Looks like the promo cards only exist.
So do the checklist get deleted and the promo cards stay? But a quick search of some sites there are some of these cards out there. Hmmm

I would say they are possibly unconfirmed "sightings" ..... I can find lots of images for the four Protos and nothing else. Also the same for the Co-Stars protos only the six I can see anywhere. As for the Badge of Honor I have seen a Patrick Roy in google images and no more.

On the CoaStars I have seen singles or Robitaille, Messier, Selanne, Linden, Shanahan and Potvin. Plus a set
On the Mammoth I have seen Bure, Chelios

Shouldn't the promo sets for these unreleased sets be listed as an insert or related set, not a standalone promo set?

~Rob~ Hockey set collector including inserts, ERR, COR, VAR. Knowledgeable about 1968-69 to 1994-95 hockey. All 1990 and newer cards for trade are NRMT. Expect the same in return. 1989 and older are assigned a grade. Everything on my trade list is available for sale. Reasonable prices based on condition. If it's not on my tradelist, it's not available. |
