1988 Donruss wax box

Description

1988 Donruss consists of 660 cards. Card fronts feature a distinctive black and blue border on the front. The card front border design pattern of the factory set card fronts is oriented differently from that of the regular wax pack cards. No premium or discount exists for either version.

Subsets include Diamond Kings (1-27) and Rated Rookies (28-47).

Cards marked as SP (short printed) from 648-660 are more difficult to find than the other 13 SP's in the lower 600s. These 26 cards listed as SP were apparently pulled from the printing sheet to make room for the 26 Bonus MVP inserts. Six of the checklist cards were done two different ways to reflect the inclusion or exclusion of the Bonus MVP cards in the wax packs.

Checklist cards found in packs account for the Bonus MVPs while the ones found in factory sets do not.

The key Rookie Cards in this set are Roberto Alomar, Jay Buhner, Ellis Burks, Ken Caminiti, Tom Glavine, Mark Grace and Matt Williams. For a while, the Gregg Jefferies card was one of the hottest Rookie Cards of the late-80s.

1988 Donruss marked the end of "The Golden Age of Donruss Baseball." Production was dramatically increased, and the long-run value of this set has been severely depressed.

Parallels

Super DKs

This 26-player card set was available through a mail-in offer detailed on the wax packs. The set was sent in return for 8.00 and three wrappers plus 1.50 postage and handling. The set features the popular Diamond Kings in large (approximately 4 7/8" by 6 13/16") form.

Inserts

Bonus MVPs

Numbered with the prefix "BC" for bonus card, this 26-card set featuring the most valuable player from each major league team was randomly inserted in packs. The cards are distinguished by the MVP logo in the upper left corner of the obverse, and cards BC14-BC26 are considered to be very slightly more difficult to find than cards BC1-BC13.
