His were also "limited" usually being numbered to I think 50. I only ever bought one, a Bobby Orr which I got signed at a hardware store opening. He wasn't real happy about signing it, but did. I almost said it was ok not to, but he was quicker than I was 
Maybe also related to the "3-d" cards someone was making also around 1993 ish? Usally 3 91 Donruss cut out in layers and reassembled into a little 3-d display. Those were sold through places like Toys R Us and got squashed by the big three card companies pretty quickly. I never bought one since they were around $20 if I remember correctly.

Why didn't Orr want to sign it?
