Description

1998 Stadium Club is a 400-card set released in two series of 200 cards. For some strange reason, Series One contained the odd numbered base cards and Series Two included even numbered cards.

Two separate Cal Ripken, Jr. Sound Chip cards were distributed as box toppers in Home Team Advantage boxes.

Subsets include: Prime Rookies (even-numbered 332-354), Future Stars (odd-numbered 361-379), Draft Picks (odd-numbered 381-399) and Transactions (even-numbered 356-400).

Distribution

Retail: 24 packs per box, six cards per pack (MSRP: $2)

Hobby: 24 packs per box, nine cards per pack (MSRP: $3)

HTA: 11 packs plus one Cal Ripken, Jr. "Screenplay Sound Chip" card per box, 15 cards per pack (MSRP: $5)

Triumvirate

Trimuvirate is a 54-card die-cut set exclusive to retail packs. The set is grouped into 18, three-card "Triumvirates" (usually three players on the same team) with each individual card sequentially-numbered A, B, or C. Each card is die-cut so that when all three cards in a Triumvirate are together, they form one larger card. Triumvirates T1-T8 are exclusive to Series One, or "Odd," retail packs; while T9-T18 are in Even Series (Series Two) packs.

Each card is available in three different editions.

Luminous (Chrome)
Luminescent (Chrome Refractor)
Illuminator (Chrome Atomic Refractor)

Cal Ripken, Jr. Screenplays Sound Chips

Packed into every HTA box as a box topper, is a lenticular card of Cal Ripken. Built into the card is a speaker and microchip containing a brief (around 15 seconds) of audio play-by-play. Card "A" was inserted into every Odd Series HTA box, while card "B" was put into each Even Series HTA box.

Autographs & Game-Used

Co-Signers

Exclusive to Hobby and HTA packs, this 36-card set features on-card autographs of two different players. Cards CS1-CS18 were in Odd Series packs, while CS19-CS36 were in the Even Series. Each player signed three different cards with three different players at three different scarcities. Group "A" cards are the scarcest while group "C" is the most available.

Sandy Alomar, Jr. told Beckett in 1998 that he and his brother Roberto signed only 25 copies of their group "A" card.
