Default English Leather 1990 Cmc

The site states a print run of 12. Is this accurate? How did you find that out?

I can guarantee that number isn't correct, although there may be that many or less still in circulation. They were given out at a minor league baseball game and sponsored by English Leather if I remember correctly.

I have one, although it is in poor condition.

Chris,

I have all three versions of the card. The original CMC cards were issued in a wooden box set. You and I both have the wooden box. I think the wooden box sets were numbered to 1,000. CMC was then sold to Impel Marketing who issued team sets. These are more common to see. The English Leather sets are more difficult to obtain. The one that I have is in very good shape. I also have a PSA 10 of the American Association version and also a PSA 10 of the Drug Emporium version. I need a PSA 10 of the English Leather version. The English Leather version is more difficult because I think it was a give away item at the minor league game. It must have only been given out at a single game.

i have all 3, but not a wooden box???? my drug emp came out of a team set.... i was shocked as i thought i was getting a duplicate of the english leather when i bought it as i had no idea there was a 3rd version. i stumbled across this for $10 at a card show in arlington, tx in 1991.
