2001 Fleer Platinum is a 601-card set produced and distributed by [[Fleer Skybox International|Fleer]], as a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the [[1981 Fleer]] set.  The first series of 301 cards was released in May, 2001 and was originally intended to be the sole series. But after the set was so successful, a second series of 300 cards, officially known as "2001 Fleer Platinum Rookie Collection" was quickly produced and released in December.

But after the set was so successful, a second series of 300 cards, officially known as "2001 Fleer Platinum Rookie Collection" was quickly produced and released in December.


In addition to the use of the 1981 Fleer design, Platinum was notable for being released in wax, jumbo, and rack pack formats -- each with their own pack-specific "hits." Each Hobby Wax box (both series) contained one game-used memorabilia card.  Each Jumbo box (both series) yielded a hand-numbered game jersey patch card.  Each Series One Rack Pack came with a buyback autograph, while each RC Series Rack Pack had a Lumberjacks game-used bat card.

National Patch Time is a 66-card game-used set exclusive to Series One and Rookie Collection Series Hobby and retail wax packs. 
 
'''NOTES'''
 
* Despite the name, the cards do NOT feature any "patch" material.
* Mo Vaughn, Kazuhiro Sasaki, Aaron Sele, Todd Walker, Jorge Posada, Vida Blue, Jim Palmer, Mike Mussina, Jim Rice, and Carl Yastrzemski were all on the original Series One checklist, but were pulled at the last minute from Series One packs. Vaughn, Sele, Posada, and Sasaki were eventually seeded into RC Series packs.  Rice, Mussina, and Yastrzemski were never intended for release; however, a single Mike Mussina card was verified to have been pulled from an RC Series pack. 
* In 2004 copies of the Yastrzemski card were reportedly sent out to collectors as exchange premiums for other issues Fleer could not fulfill. 
* Rice's and Walker's cards eventually made its way into The Hobby, and may have been [[backdoored]] after Fleer's 2005 Bankruptcy. 
* Blue, and Palmer's cards have never emerged and can be assumed to have never been made.

National Patch Time is a 66-card game-used set exclusive to Series One and RC Series Hobby and RC Series retail wax packs.
This 21-card set is one of the real highlights of the group of insert sets in 2001 Fleer Platinum. The cards are buy-backs from other Fleer releases (mostly from the late-90s Sports Illustrated sets) that were hand signed and inserted into Series One Rack Packs. Most of the cards were hand-numbered on the card front; however, none of the cards are marked as coming from Fleer Platinum.


'''NOTE:''' Mo Vaughn, Kazuhiro Sasaki, Aaron Sele, Todd Walker, Jorge Posada, Vida Blue, Jim Palmer, Mike Mussina, Jim Rice, and Carl Yastrzemski were all one the original Series One cheecklist, but were pulled at the last minute from Series One packs. Vaughn, Sele, Posada, and Sasaki were eventually seeded into RC Series packs.  Rice, Mussina, and Yastrzemski were never intended for release; however, a single Mike Mussina card was verified to have been pulled from an RC Series pack.  In 2004 copies of the Yastrzemski card were reportedly sent out to collectors as exchange premiums for other issues Fleer could not fulfill.  Rice's card eventually made its way into The Hobby, and may have been [[backdoored]] after Fleer's 2005 Bankruptcy.
Four rather generic looking cards with 1997 copyright dates that were not released as part of any 1997 set (Paul Konerko, Ben Grieve, Wes Helms, and Jose Cruz, Jr.), were included as part of this set.


Walker, Blue, and Palmer's cards have never emerged and can be assumed to have never been made.
In addition to the cards listed below, autographs from the [[1992 Fleer]] Roger Clemens Career Highlights and the [[1998 E-X 2001]] Signature 2001 sets were also inserted.  These too, were not marked or embossed as coming from 2001 Fleer Platinum.

Description

2001 Fleer Platinum is a 601-card set produced and distributed by Fleer, as a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the 1981 Fleer set. The first series of 301 cards was released in May, 2001 and was originally intended to be the sole series. But after the set was so successful, a second series of 300 cards, officially known as "2001 Fleer Platinum Rookie Collection" was quickly produced and released in December.

In addition to the use of the 1981 Fleer design, Platinum was notable for being released in wax, jumbo, and rack pack formats -- each with their own pack-specific "hits." Each Hobby Wax box (both series) contained one game-used memorabilia card. Each Jumbo box (both series) yielded a hand-numbered game jersey patch card. Each Series One Rack Pack came with a buyback autograph, while each RC Series Rack Pack had a Lumberjacks game-used bat card.

The last 51 cards of Series One (cards 251-301) are short-printed. Card #301 was a late addition to the product and was serial-numbered to 1500 copies.

The last 100 cards of the RC Series (cards 502-601) are also short-printed. By mistake, cards #402 (Freddy Garcia) and #529 (Mark Prior) were switched with each other on the printing forms; thereby making #402 an SP. This also made Mark Prior's Platinum card his only true rookie card that was not intentionally short-printed.

Also randomly inserted into RC packs were serial-numbered rookie cards from other previously released 2001 Fleer Baseball products.

Distribution

Series One/RC Series Wax: 24 packs per box, 10 cards per pack (MSRP: $2.99)

Series One/RC Series Jumbo: 12 packs per box, 25 cards per pack (MSRP: $9.99)

Series One Rack: Eight packs per box, 45 cards per pack.

RC Series Rack: Six packs per box, 45 cards per pack.

This set features reprints of classic Fleer cards. Each card was intentionally printed off-register giving it a blurry, out-of-focus, look -- if only to differentiate it from the originals. Each card also has a "Fleer Platinum 20th Anniversary" logo on the front.

National Patch Time is a 66-card game-used set exclusive to Series One and Rookie Collection Series Hobby and retail wax packs.

NOTES

  • Despite the name, the cards do NOT feature any "patch" material.
  • Mo Vaughn, Kazuhiro Sasaki, Aaron Sele, Todd Walker, Jorge Posada, Vida Blue, Jim Palmer, Mike Mussina, Jim Rice, and Carl Yastrzemski were all on the original Series One checklist, but were pulled at the last minute from Series One packs. Vaughn, Sele, Posada, and Sasaki were eventually seeded into RC Series packs. Rice, Mussina, and Yastrzemski were never intended for release; however, a single Mike Mussina card was verified to have been pulled from an RC Series pack.
  • In 2004 copies of the Yastrzemski card were reportedly sent out to collectors as exchange premiums for other issues Fleer could not fulfill.
  • Rice's and Walker's cards eventually made its way into The Hobby, and may have been backdoored after Fleer's 2005 Bankruptcy.
  • Blue, and Palmer's cards have never emerged and can be assumed to have never been made.

This 21-card set is one of the real highlights of the group of insert sets in 2001 Fleer Platinum. The cards are buy-backs from other Fleer releases (mostly from the late-90s Sports Illustrated sets) that were hand signed and inserted into Series One Rack Packs. Most of the cards were hand-numbered on the card front; however, none of the cards are marked as coming from Fleer Platinum.

Four rather generic looking cards with 1997 copyright dates that were not released as part of any 1997 set (Paul Konerko, Ben Grieve, Wes Helms, and Jose Cruz, Jr.), were included as part of this set.

In addition to the cards listed below, autographs from the 1992 Fleer Roger Clemens Career Highlights and the 1998 E-X 2001 Signature 2001 sets were also inserted. These too, were not marked or embossed as coming from 2001 Fleer Platinum.

  • Steve Garvey 87F 15
  • Ben Grieve 97 (No Brand) 100
  • Wes Helms 97 (No Brand)
  • Paul Konerko 97 (No Brand) 135
  • Jose Cruz, Jr. 97 (No Brand)
  • Hank Aaron 97 SI 90
  • Willie Mays 97 SI 115
  • Kirby Puckett 97 SI 105
  • Cal Ripken, Jr. 97 SI 5

Inserted into each RC Series rack pack, this 27-card set features game-used bat cards some of the more feared sluggers in the game, as well as several young hitters poised for a breakout.
