Cards came in tamper resistant foil packs made from a combination of polyester, polyethylene and metallized polypropylene.  Additionally, the unique anti-counterfeit bar codes were again featured on the back.

All 540 cards in the base set were available as a Museum Collection parallel that debuted the use of Pinnacle's exclusive [[Dufex]] technology for the first time in its flagship brand.  This parallel - along with the [[1994_Pinnacle#Artist.27s_Proof|Artist's Proof]] parallel - were featured in every issue of Pinnacle flagship until its [[Pinnacle_Brands|bankruptcy]] in 1998. 


281 Lou Whitaker
Only 6500 copies of each card were produced (which was consider a lower print run at the time), although none are serial-numbered.

Description

1994 Pinnacle was a 540 card, dual series set featuring 270 cards in each series. Building off the success from the first two years, Pinnacle Brands, Inc. continued the release its "premium" flagship product that was known for its excellent photography and gold foil accenting on base cards (which was becoming more common for brand quality distinction at the time). New for this year, each base card featured a borderless color photo with a gold foil nameplate and Pinnacle logo plate. Cards came in tamper resistant foil packs made from a combination of polyester, polyethylene and metallized polypropylene. Additionally, the unique anti-counterfeit bar codes were again featured on the back.

There were 2 subsets:

  • Rookie Prospects
  • Draft Picks

There were no notable Rookie Cards in this set.

All 540 cards in the base set were available as a Museum Collection parallel that debuted the use of Pinnacle's exclusive Dufex technology for the first time in its flagship brand. This parallel - along with the Artist's Proof parallel - were featured in every issue of Pinnacle flagship until its bankruptcy in 1998.

Only 6500 copies of each card were produced (which was consider a lower print run at the time), although none are serial-numbered.

Five Series Two Museum Collection cards packed out as redemptions -- which, ironically, had Dufex fronts. Each redemption card expired December 31st, 1994.
