The Living Checklist: 1990 Pro Set Error Variation Promo and Oddity list.

6 Jan

Although there are a bunch of 1990 Pro Set error and variation lists floating around out there, I have found that most are missing a large bit of info (mostly recent discoveries) or as is the usual case, they have incorrect info (i.e. Walter Stanley with #87 on back). I also feel that the popular unconfirmed varieties that may exist are worth noting as well. All recurring print defect variations are now noted with a RPD designation. A recurring print defect refers to cards which are affected by short run obstructions to their printing plate(s) and/or interruptions to the normal printing process BUT that are also found in large enough numbers to be considered variations in their own right. Stat line breaks, stray lines and miscellaneous blotches are examples of such.

So, getting started, I have added the following key:

***** = Extremely rare variation and/or promo. Only a handful confirmed to exist. Possible proof issues.

**** = Very scarce variation and/or promo that is hardly offered for sale.

*** = Scarce variation and/or promo that rarely pop up for sale, usually an early correction or very short-run variety.

** = Scarce variation and/or promo that are rarer than the ‘common’ variations and pop up for sale only occasionally.

* = Slightly tougher to find than a common card, the Johnny Holland NNOB is a good example of this.

No star = Can be found with little searching, usually offered for sale on ebay by a number of sellers at any given time.

Enjoy!

NOTE: All cards of the New York Jets can be found with a pink bar/strip on back where the team logo appears above the stats. These are very scarce. RPD

Pro Set football cards are receiving  a heavy amount of collector attention these days. Likely due to a mix of nostalgia experienced by the children of their era (1989-1993, who’re now grown adult collectors) and the staggeringly expensive recent online sales of such previously ‘hidden’ or little-known variations as the Dexter Manley and Lud Denny errors.

This list is complete as of today. Obviously there will be many, many additions to it over time (and I welcome any contributions) and they will be added as they reveal themselves.

    Hey there. I am a huge enthusiast of this set and I reference this page often to check which variations I am pulling from packs. I would love to see pics of the variations. Do you have the ability to add pics to this post?

      Hi DJ,

      I do have the ability to post images, but 1990 Pro Set would take me ages to add photos to each variation. Many of the “recent discovery” variations can regularly be found on ebay as a number of sellers offer them from time to time. This would be a good way to get an idea of what the 2 variations for each card look like.

      If you check out my other blogs, you’ll see that I try to get a scan or two whenever I spotlight a particular card or set.

      Prices have varied greatly on this. Originally selling around $150 and dropping from there. I’d estimate $20-30 now, but until it gets documented in the guides, we won’t really know just how rare they are. I personally have bought dozens of final update sets, lots of the Manleys and only have seen 2 copies.

    Just going through the old collection and remembered that I have two variations of the Super Bowl 24 card, one is the current year design (1990) and the other features the design from the previous year. All the content on the card is the same, just that the design itself is different. I didnt see this specifically mentioned though I may have missed it.

    Hello…I noticed that you have a 4 star grading system.
    I know that you had the Dexter Manley as 4 stars and it is now down to 3 stars? Did it become less scarce?
    I also noticed you have finally listed the Steve Young promo #666 as a 4 star. Thank you for finally recognizing this special card. It took some convincing,but I finally got Beckett grading to also recognize the card. They are grading it as well as my Dexter Manley 772A right now. It will be the FIRST time the graded each of the cards. Can’t wait to get them back in November. Slabbed up and ready to show off.

        Hello Matthew….While I can appreciate your interest in the Steve Young #666 card. I regret to inform you that I’m not interested in selling the card at this time. I had it graded by Beckett and I’m not very happy with my transaction. They said there would be NO trouble to grade such a rare card and document it. Well turns out….Not as easy as that. Here’s how it went . My card is graded…but NOT included in the population report. They agreed it was a legitimate card…but would not list it with the Pro Set(Set). Who knows why? All I know is that I spent a lot of money getting it graded&insured,…only to be told different. What a rip. However they did grade my Dexter Manley Substance abuse card #772 (the only one they have ever graded). I’m convinced that getting a card graded is nothing more than an insurance scam. The grading is cheap….but the insurance will eat you up. (And they have their OWN insurance company)Has to be a better way. Well,best of luck in your quest. Rotten Ralph

    • junkwaxgems March 31, 2011 at 8:28 pm #

      Not sure how I missed your comment originally, but better late than never, right?

      The knowledge of the #666 variation (as well as the Thurman Thomas and Mike Singletary Holograms tests) pushed me to go for a 4-star rating. The Manley didn’t necessarily get “less-rare,” but it certainly seems that it’s popped up more this last year than in the previous six or seven. Add that the Young 666 card has not ever been offered for sale (publicly) as far as I can tell. Maybe a 5-star for that issue? It certainly has to be scarcer than the Manley. As of today, the previously thrown-around production figure of 50 Manley ERRs seems extremely conservative (especially if you consider the commenter below who found uncut 10-sheets of them in the garbage). Either way, the Steve Young you own seems like the top dog in 1990 Pro Set oddities/variations, Manley, Eric Dickerson’s FACT issue and possibly Barry Sanders’ Hawaii promo would be the close second tier, based primarily on how seldom they appear for sale.

    I have Andre Ware’s regular 1990 Pro Set card but I also have an error card as well. On the back it has all of Andre Ware’s information of the #19 card but the front of the card is different. Also the back is also kind of blurry looking. Now on the front of the card it has 1990 Pro Bowl listed at the top with Brian Blades WR Seahawks listed at the bottom with his photo on it.

    I have another card that Bringham Young #20 card information on the back with the 1990 Pro Bowl on the front and Albert Lewis CB Chiefs on the front of it. The front was also printed out of alignment because there is a dual image/3D effect going on.

    I guess I need to go through all the rest of my cards and see what others I might have.

    I have a 1990 proset card with Troy Aikman on the front and Jerry Ball on the back of the card. Are these wrong back type of errors too numerous to list, or just not of interest to most collectors? I always hung onto it thinking it was a pretty unique and interesting card.

The front of the card is the Greg Kragen 1990 pro bowl #348. The back of the card is the Joe Montana 1989 passing leader #8 card. I haven’t seen the variation listed anywhere. I would appreciate any help. Thank you

      Hi Patrick,

      The card is known as a wrong back, they are somewhat common in 1990 Pro Set. Sometimes they find their way into packs, but most often they are scap or printers waste that gets taken from the factory or dumpster and cut up before finding their way into the hobby. This is why they often feature stars and key rookies. Sometimes these are highly coveted, but most often they sell for just a few bucks.

      Hi Rich,

      Well the Manley and Marion variations are quite popular and do sell for a decent amount of cash, more so with the Manley. I really cannot tell you what the uncut sheets are “worth” or would fetch at auction. Pro Set variations are a niche within a niche as it is. I do recommend sending some scans of pics of some o the hoard. Many of us researching this product may benefit by hearing about/seeing what other items were included in this batch. If you’d like to, you can email me at jacksoncoupage@yahoo.com

      I’m fairly certain that your sheets would get a lot o interest and if you aren’t attached to them, I recommend putting them up on eBay and seeing what kind of offers you get.

      Good luck and Congrats on a strange and rare find!

I know he had it on ebay a while back,but I don’t know if it sold. The card is really a fine example that would enhance any collectors set. This card will fetch a good price and I believe it’s worth every penny. As for the gentleman that recently found some uncut sheets with the Dexter Manley error. This would answer a lot of questions if they do exist. I would really like to see someone confirm these true gems. It could defiantly be a terrific find.

      I’m also interested in your NBA cards??? Are they Pro Set also? Any chance of getting scans of those also? Front&Back. They really sound different. Best of luck in your quests. And Thank you. Rotten Ralph

      Hi Misty,

      Your card comes from 1991 Pro Set and it’s one of the most famous of Pro Set errors, mainly due to it’s very noticeable mistake on front. These can be found at any time on eBay and typically sell between $5-15, though sometimes less than that lately.

Also #684 James Williams, there is a light magenta circle on his left shoulder, it doesn’t appear that its apart of his jersey, anyone have a variation without a magenta circle?

    It looks like the good Proset boxes to buy are the series#1 boxes with nothing printed on the bottom or with the full ad on bottom for the early errors and late corrections. Is this true? Is there anything rare or anything with any value in the series #2 (yellow) boxes? If someone can answer it would be a great help! Also can anyone send me a scan of the #666B Steve Young card front and back? Thanks !!

      I know the accepted information has the no print boxes being first run and the gold border being the middle run, but I have opened gold border boxes and found Marion errors, while at the same time boxes with nothing on the bottom have yielded corrected Marions. This is only my personal experience from opening 50+ boxes(maybe closer to 100) and may not be the same for others. I just wanted to show that collation and distribution of the green boxes is crazy.

      1990 Pro Set wrong-backs seem to be more common than other issues and can be found on eBay with some frequency. In particular, I see the AFC Pro Bowl fronts with the award winner card backs the most often. I have not found a definitive checklist yet, but it seems like the going rate for these wrong-backs is somewhere in the neighborhood of $5-$10.

    I have a 1990 Pro Set Hall of Fame edition card of Bob Griese. The front and back of the card contains image errors that I have yet to find mentioned anywhere on the web. The front picture is shifted to the left by about 1/4 of an inch. The back of the card is shifted down by about the same. Card #24.

    Can anyone confirm that this was a documented error in 1990?

    I was wondering if anybody could tell me a little bit more about how the Manley substance abuse variation was distributed. Were the final update cards ever distributed through wax packs? If so, do you have any idea if the Manley variations were available there? Or, were the final update cards released only through the pre-packaged, plastic-wrapped sets from Pro Set? I recently opened a few of the plastic-wrapped final update sets and I noticed something. All of the cards were oriented the same way–they were all facing the same way and all the tops were aligned…EXCEPT for the Manley. In both sets that I opened, the Manley was oriented a different way. I do not know if that is relevant to how the corrections were inserted into the supply chain or not, but I found it interesting.

    • Dylan August 2, 2012 at 9:55 am #

      Hi Patrick,

      From what I know, they were found in the sealed update sets. Final series cards were not issued any other way.

      However, readers of this site know that an uncut sheet of 10 was recently discovered and cut up and sold, which I believe has led to the recent availablity of them on ebay.

      Having open close to a hundred of the sealed sets, I did notice this pattern. Also, the color of the Manley borders is slightly different than the other Cardinals cards which is usually a quick tell that you’ve received a corrected copy. Another recurring oddity in those sets is the occasional slightly larger cut card.

      No, I do not. There is no solid, absolute rhyme or reason to the box bottoms contrary to what many sellers are claiming. The bottoms were produced at different stages of the presses but early variations have shown up in the “later” type boxes. Both you and I pulled Fred Marion’s from the same case about 2 years ago, IIRC.

    I have a card showing erik mcmillan on the front as his pro bowl card, but on the back it shows walter stanleys’ lions card. Also, the printing on the back is all messed up.

    Has anyone heard of this?

    Happened to run across two boxes of unopened Series 1 packs at a local thrift store – I bought about 40 packs. Open all of them, probably about 10 verified error cards found in total.

    Would look to sell them if anyone is interested – I am more interested getting stuff to folks who will appreciate it!

    I have the #78b Troy Aikman (red line removed from back, white streak through ‘j’ in ‘injured’ on back), #135a Rohn Stark (with name shifted to left on front – ‘K’ lines up with tip of foot) and #346a Tunch Ilkin PB (black line on front by knee).

    Just pulled a few more cards – potentially of interest – from Series II packs:

    1. #460b Eric Ball (RECEIVING fully printed, stat headings clipped off) **

    2. #743A Johnny Bailey RC/(Back says 46) *

    3. #547b Max Montoya (full TM on front) *

    As always, please let me know if you’re interested in one or all

      Just looked through some additional Series 1 cards:

      1. #253 Buddy Ryan – This card has a small yellow dot below the C in “Coach” on the front of the card. Not sure if this is a printing error?

      2. #43 Nate Odomes – This card doesn’t have the en-longed “T” on the front, but has a white blotch on the T in his first name. Error?

      3. Playbook III Insert – Very strong/defined black printer lines on front bottom, inside left top and back double. Double lines approx 1/4” apart on front bottom and back bottom. Single line inside left top. Anyone seen this before?

      4. #356 Anthony Miller PB – I noticed a very distinct 1/4” long line in between the R in Miller and the G in Chargers on back top of card.

      5.#98c Lomas Brown (blotch completely removed from front, red curled slash through top of photo) **

      6. #50a Kevin Butler ( ic in Chicago 86 stats is whited-out) ** In my card the ic is not completely whited out – but is partially whited out – almost like small grains of salt sprinkled on the ic.

        Hi Matt,

        PSA is refusing to grade the Lud Denny and I suspect they’ll take the same stance on the Steve Young card. I am going to try to convince them that the Lud Denny has been a staple card known in the hobby for years and should be included in the master set, but it’s not going to be easy. Frankly, they probably shouldn’t include either the Denny, Steve Young, or the Barry Sanders Hawaii card in the basic set since none of these could be pulled from packs. It’s debatable whether they should be included in the master set or not.

        Regardless, I have three Dennys and they all look like they’ll grade 8-9. Still haven’t gotten a hold of a Steve Young.

      • Matt May 30, 2013 at 9:43 pm #

      The league leader/award winner cards (gold foil borders) had a different printing procedure than others. They underwent the regular process but the borders were printed after the rest of the card and finally, the black ink portions within the borders such as their name, card number, were printed over the gold foil. The Anderson example missed that final step, which is why all the other print appears on the card.

      Hi, these are very common printer’s waste cards that were taken from the factory in sheet form and cut up by dealers/collectors. There is a seemingly infinite number of combinations and while some sell decently, most do not. There has been an abundance of them on ebay over the last 5-6 years or so.

    Not sure if anyone checks this anymore, but I found some new errors. I have multiples of these cards along with corrected versions, so they aren’t common blank backs, wrong backs, or printing flaws.

    #295 Jerry Rice: yellow 1/4″ line on bottom front
    #198 Wade Wilson: 3, 1/4″ red marks below Vikings on back
    #182 Louis Oliver: 1/2″ black vertical line on back near number 182. I also have a version of this that is partially airbrushed to only 1/4″.
    #300 Jeff Bryant: green curved mark on front by referee’s knee.
    #138 Fredd Young: small black mark by saints player’s shoulder. Also a corrected version with a 1/4″ red mark by card number on back.
    #137 Clarence Verdin: blue dot(s) extending from from blue area to white area on bottom front of card.
    #273 Keith Willis: red mark on front yellow banner before “Keith”.
    #81 Crawford Ker: Black mark in “O” of Crawford on front.
    #84 Ken Norton: Curved mark on front between “ton” of Norton.
    #223 Carl Banks: Curved mark on Giants helmet on front.
    #42 Scott Norwood red sqwiggle on front by tee.
    #44 Scott Radecic: 1/2″ airbrush mark on front by ProSet logo
    #354 Erik McMillian: faint black marks at bottom of card on front
    #282 Billy Joe Tolliver: small red mark between “e” and “t” on front
    #302 Norm Johnson: 1″ red mark on front from shoe to holder hand

    *also, all the Colts cards have a version where the Colts logo on the back slants down to the right.

    Hello I have a question. I have had this card since personally collected back in 1990 when I was only 12 and I have never been able to find out much about it but I think it might possibly be the only one in existence and I was wanting to see if anyone had ever seen another one.

    It is an Anthony Munoz Pro-Bowl card on the front but on the back is the back of the HoF Jack Lambert. One of the corners is white as if the print ran out of ink or something. It is definitely NOT two cards stuck together as is easy to see upon inspection. I just put it away in a box and kind of forgot about it after never seeing anything in Beckett about it. Would it be of any value if it did happen to be the only one?

    Reply
    • Dylan May 6, 2020 at 12:22 pm #

      This is a wrong back card. While some entered packs, 95% of them entered the hobby by dumpster divers fishing out misprinted sheets outside of the printing facilities. They are very common and don’t usually command much of a premium but are constantly choking up eBay searches for “pro set error.” Your specific card may not be on there now but I can confirm that it has been before as well as other combination of Munoz and Lambert. There are nearly limitless front and back combos as a result of this so collectors do not typically feel they are a must for their collections.

      Adam do you have a list of what you have found? I have a lot of 90 proset as well as unopened boxes early print run(no printing on box bottom).

      Wrong back, very common and not part of the master set. Printers scrap. Neat scrap but not valuable or essential.

    I have a 1990 Pro Set card on the back of #5 Keith Millard and on the other side is the back of card #142 of Irv Eatman. Anybody ever seen the back to back version?

      Printers scrap/proof sheet misalignment stuff. Majority of it was removed from the printer facility dumpsters. Lots of it out there now.

      Not a variation for the master set, just a manufacturing/printing error.

    Greetings, all! Just got back into this product again. Seems like every 10 years or so I have to scratch my green box and yellow box itch. Am wondering if there would be any interest in a private Facebook group so we could all post scans/pics there? Might be a good compliment to this site. Been loving digging through all the info.

    […] As most of you know, Pro Set sets had MANY errors/variations inside due to their “living set” idea in which cards were updated during the season (because of trades, free agent signings, etc) and re-released in later series depicting said updates.  In doing so and as a repercussion of doing this so quickly, many errors/variations exist due to printing errors.  Don’t believe me?  Check out Junk Wax Gem’s reference guide to all of the errors/variations produced for the 1990 Pro Set football set.
