Default Pinnacle Cooperstown Promo

Hi everyone, just curious how many others have this card? I am wondering how many were made. Like the English Leather I'd guess a handful.

every card dealer that ordered from pinnacle in the 90s were sent samples,they came in clear packs of 5 to promote the product that was coming out.i lived across the street from a card shop in elgin ill.there were 7 dealers in a 5 mile radius. they all got the same samples. how many cards shops WERE in the U.S. IN THE EARLY 90S. as many as there 1987 topps boxes. where are they? sitting in a lot of monster boxes collecting dust in a lot of basements!

But did every dealer get a pack of the same 5 players?
Or did they get random players in each pack.
That would explain their rarity, because this card is extremely hard to find.

Me neither!!!

That leads to a great question...Which was/is a more difficult accomplishment? To have all the great, unique, rare older cards like Alan, Dan, etc?? or to have such a diverse and thorough collection of the more recent cards like Rob and I ??

I have my opinion, but I will wait to see what everyone else thinks before I post it.
