    Ticket to the Majors Autograph Boosters

    Each Ticket to the Majors Autograph Booster card has four autographs, all of the same player, on a perforated "ticket" with four "tabs." The lucky collector could detach one of the four autographed tabs and slide it into the built in "window" on the player's respective Ticket to the Majors base card (see above). What you did with the other three autographed tabs was nobody's business but your own.

    Some of the Autograph Boosters packed out as exchange cards, which did not have an expiration date. However, the May 2005 bankruptcy of Fleer made any outstanding redemptions not worth the paper they were printed on. Each Booster is limited, but not serial-numbered, to 50 copies.

    For some reason, Angel Berroa autographed some of Jerry Gil's Boosters, even going to far as mentioning his 2003 American League Rookie of the Year as a notation.
