I personally bought the "BLACK BOX" version, and the photo quality is decent. The set includes 300 cards featuring mechanics, drivers, team leaders, assistants, and owners. It's a nice set that truly allows you to explore the world of NASCAR from the late 80s to the early 90s, especially for younger fans and a rediscovery for older ones. I don't know the difference between the red and black boxes, but I'll leave it to others to explain it better than me. In any case, if you're a fan of NASCAR from the 80s/90s, I believe you can purchase it; you won't be disappointed unless you're a picky person or not a true NASCAR fan, I think.
