Description

1994 Finest Baseball is a 440-card set released in two series of 220 cards each. Each series includes 40 special design Finest cards: 20 top 1993 rookies (1-20), 20 top 1994 rookies (421-440) and 40 top veterans (201-240). It's believed that these subset cards are in slightly shorter supply than the basic issue cards, but the manufacturer has never confirmed this. Some Series Two packs contained either one or two Series One cards.

Production of 1994 Finest was greatly increased over the previous year's set. The only notable Rookie Card is Chan Ho Park.

Distribution

24 packs per box, seven cards per pack.
