I have fond memories fighting with my brother over Denny's cards.
ReplyDeleteSounds like good times!
DeleteI remember trying to collect the 1991 set, but I had no idea they kept the promotion going through 1997.
ReplyDeleteI guess the 1991 cards you could turn in for a free meal if a player from that team hit a grand slam.
DeleteReally weird that some of the best looking cards of the 1990s came from such an unusual location.
ReplyDeleteI miss both Pinnacle and Upper Deck. They are some nice looking cards. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the 1991 Upper Deck hologram cards look scanned.
DeleteI'm a huge fan of the 90's Denny's sets. They were released during my college years where my friends and I held late night study sessions. By the way... that Jackie Robinson is my second favorite Denny's card of all-time. My favorite? The 1994 Reggie Jackson.
ReplyDeleteI saw that the Reggie Jackson was listed as SP. Quick ebay and comc search pulls up nothing. A sold search on ebay reveals a sealed set with the Jackson card that sold for over $100. Looks like only 1500 were made. Yikes!
DeleteIt took me awhile to find an affordable copy. Based on my post, I paid $9... but it wasn't a mint copy. I think each Denny's location was allocated one card to be given away as a prize.
DeleteWow I thought these were only on 96, had no idea they were made before then
ReplyDeleteI knew they did them several years, but it wasn't until I started researching recently that I realized the promotion started in 1991.
