Parallels
All 180 base cards are available in a Player's Private Issue parallel, which is serial-numbered to 999 copies.
Although these cards are numbered to 999, only 599 of each player exist. The first 100 serial-numbered cards (1-100) were set aside and given to each player as a gift from Topps. The remaining 499 sets were randomly inserted in packs as Topps released a statement at the end of the 1996 season claiming that they destroyed the other 400 sets. There is not sequential order of serial-numbers that were destroyed as low, medium, and high serial numbers are all available on the secondary market - this suggests that Topps destroyed 400 serial-numbered sets at random.
