Trivia |
- After years of ordering teams by World Series winner, World Series loser, ALCS/NLCS losers (better record first) then all non-playoff teams from best record to worst, Fleer moved to ordering teams from best overall record (Oakland) to worst (Baltimore) with this set, but there are two mistakes: 1) 89-73 Boston is listed before 91-71 Minnesota, and 2) 85-77 Pittsburgh is listed before 87-75 Toronto.
- Six Oakland Athletics cards have red stripes instead of green: #3 Todd Burns, #11 Rick Honeycutt, #14 Doug Jennings, #15 Felix Jose, #18 Gene Nelson and #26 Curt Young. This error was never corrected.
- Although players are sorted alphabetically by last name within each team, #367 Scott is listed before #368 Ryan within the Astros group. Checklist #657 lists Ryan as #367 and Scott as #368.

I know that print quality is not a strong suit for many of the older sets, but I was wondering if anyone else has noticed a black dot on the gray header on the back of Rick Reuschel, #340, above the "R" in his last name? I have multiple recurrences of this dot in the same location, same size, and same color. Just curious if this is something that qualifies as a variation or not. | ||
What about the fact every player on each team has same colored lines top and bottom of picture except for a few A’s players. Most A’s players have green lines but 5 players have red lines instead isn’t that a error of some kind UER or COR | ||
