1996 Collector's Choice is a 790-card, two series, set.  The first 365 cards were released in November, 1995.  Randomly inserted into all Series One packs were three different "Post-Season Highlights" exchange cards.  Each card could then be sent to Upper Deck, and the collector would then receive one of three, ten-card, Post-Season Highlight subsets (cards 366-395).  Series Two was released in June, 1996 and contained another 365 cards (396-760).  The final 30-cards (#761-790) make up an Update subset and were available via a wrapper redemption offer.  All 790 cards were available in the Collector's Choice Factory set.

Also, a 48-card, partial parallel set was distributed via vending machines. These cards are very similar to the regular cards with some differences; they are numbered out of 48 and the first six cards in the set are foil.

Randomly inserted into Series One packs at the rate of 1:11 were three different Post-Season Highlights exchange cards.  Collector who found one of the exchange cards could then mail it back to Upper Deck and receive a pack of 10 Post-Season Highlight cards.  All 30 Post-Season Highlight cards are sequentially-numbered as an extension of the Series One base set, but with a "T" suffix.


All 30 cards were included in the 1996 Collector's Choice factory set.

On card from this 90-card set was inserted into each Series One pack. Forty-five players are featured on two different cards.  The cards measure just about the standard-size but have rounded corners and were meant to be played as part of a game.
<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1996) AND (setname = "Collector's Choice Gold Signature") AND (num BETWEEN 268 AND 279)

</sql2wiki>


In addition to being inserted into packs, dealers also were offered extra You Make the Play cards depending on how many cases ordered. A dealer who ordered one case received two 12-card packs of these cards for a total of 24 cards. Meanwhile, a dealer who ordered two cases received six 12-card packs for a total of 72 packs.

One card from this 90-card set was inserted into each Series One pack. Forty-five players are featured on two different cards.  The cards measure just about the standard-size but have rounded corners and were meant to be played as part of a game.


28 Eddie Murray
In addition to being inserted into packs, dealers also were offered extra You Make the Play cards depending on how many cases ordered. A dealer who ordered one case received two 12-card packs of these cards for a total of 24 cards. Meanwhile, a dealer who ordered two cases received six 12-card packs for a total of 72 cards.


28A Eddie Murray
Customers could also receive 12 of these cards by sending ten wrappers and $2 to an a mail-in order. This offer expired on May 15th, 1996.

Description

1996 Collector's Choice is a 790-card, two series, set. The first 365 cards were released in November, 1995. Randomly inserted into all Series One packs were three different "Post-Season Highlights" exchange cards. Each card could then be sent to Upper Deck, and the collector would then receive one of three, ten-card, Post-Season Highlight subsets (cards 366-395). Series Two was released in June, 1996 and contained another 365 cards (396-760). The final 30-cards (#761-790) make up an Update subset and were available via a wrapper redemption offer. All 790 cards were available in the Collector's Choice Factory set.

Also, a 48-card, partial parallel set was distributed via vending machines. These cards are very similar to the regular cards with some differences; they are numbered out of 48 and the first six cards in the set are foil.

Distribution

Series One Wax: 36 packs per box, 12 cards per pack (MSRP: $0.99)

Series Two Wax: 40 packs per box, 14 cards per pack (MESP: $1.29)

Wal-Mart Exclusive "A Cut Above" packs: five cards plus one Ken Griffey, Jr. "A Cut Above" insert per pack (MSRP: $0.97)

This 27-card, skip-numbered, set features transparent color player images of the home run hitters from the Collectors Choice Crash the Game regular set in a wood-like frame highlighted with silver foil. The cards were available via mail on a card-by-card basis in exchange for winning Silver or Gold Crash cards. The set parallels the You Crash the Game set; however, three players (Tim Salmon, Larry Walker, and Joe Carter) did not have any winning YCtG cards. Therefore, this set is complete without cards #CG8, CG16 and CG30.
