Very cool, love seeing breakdowns of old box breaks.

Will do more if people want more. I will have another Pro Line coming soon.

I have quite a few cards from 95 Pro Line. While it wasn't the most ground breaking product at the time, I actually liked the simplicity of the design. Sort of like 1991 Pro Set in that regard, you know, less is more sometimes. I have several autos from that set too, as a few players I have in my Packers Super Bowl winner autos PC only had autos in that set that were associated with the Packers, namely Sean Jones and Brian Williams, although Edgar Bennett also had one even though he did have a Portraits auto (which I really couldn't get myself to purchase).

Maybe if I'm bored with ripping Prizm, I'll go back and break a box or two of this for a memory lane break :)

If you guys are gonna crack more, PLEASE (pretty please) break 1996. I'm short 33 (of 738 ever made including plates and 1/1s) total Jim Everett cards and the '96 Pro Line Printer's Proof is one of them. I can't believe I've never found it. I'd GLADLY pay handsomely for it!!! Thank you! =-)

Also, I think it'd be neat to break '97 Pinnacle and '97 Stadium Club just because it had plates in there that a lot of Supercollectors would LOVE to see finally surface (myself included). '97 Score Hobby Reserve is also very favorable with Supercollectors as it has those absurdly hard to find 'Reserve Collection' parallels that grab insane prices.

Great stuff! I totally busted at least a box or two of this back in the day, one auto per box was a big deal!

Got to love the 90's stuff Im still trying to chase down hard to find Marino inserts from that era.

Amen. Those Score Hobby Reserve Collection cards are brutally tough to find. Really does make me wonder what the printing numbers on those were.

Has to be VERY low. I broke a few of those and they hit at 1 per box. Plus, Hobby Reserve was kinda limited anyway, right? Similar to all those "Premium Stock" releases (Pinnacle, Select, Select Cert, etc).

You know, it really must be. I didn't even bother putting a set together and I put together a rookie parallel for almost every set in 1997. They don't really jump out at me when I see a picture of one. Do they have any special features I wouldn't notice without seeing it in person?

The 96 printers proof is retail only and definitely a lot tougher than the 95.!good luck!

Each dealer was allocated one case of hobby reserve. 6 boxes and 3000 dealers at the time. So 18,000 boxes and a set of 330. Making 55 made at most. But not every dealer bought the score version

Yup. They are silver foil with a rough (sandpaper like) raised surface. I still have the two I pulled back I the day. That is EASILY a pair of cards I'd pay $100 each (Everett had two cards in that set).

Ugh.....that is something I did not know. Thanks for the info.

Quick question, were you able to find a Marino reserve collection from '97 Score?
