I thought that this type of question was brought up in a previous thread, but I can't find it. I am wondering if the "1994 National Sports Collectors Convention - Futera Australian Sports Cards (uncut sheet)" should be added to the "1994 15th National Sports Collectors Convention Promos" set as a "related set"?

Was that the ONLY method of distribution for those cards? ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024).

Here's a clip from Football Cartophilic Info Exchange....

1994 National Sports Collectors Convention - Futera Australian Sports Cards
Futera
USA
1 sheet

This sheet of nine cards was given away along with a promotional booklet at the 15th National Sports Collectors Convention between 2nd and 7th August, 1994 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas, and were limited to a print run of just 60,000 copies. That seems a lot but 100,000 collectors attended the 1991 convention.

Looks like it was. So yes, it should be added as a parallel. ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024).
