I think the uniform shown is the minor league affiliate, but I could be wrong.

The SP would be airbrushed, since he didn't play for NY till 95.

I was around to buy both when they were new. Bought a bunch of SR, and some how kept getting that darn kid from the Yankees system. Ended up with three. Got about what they'd sell for now almost a decade ago. Maybe a bit more since they weren't graded.
I didn't buy much SP, they just didn't do much for me, especially the main part of the set. They didn't seem any touchier than any other UD product at the time. Sadly, no Jeter. The ones I have are still just fine, even the ones in the box without sleeves
Yeah the 1993 didn’t feel much different. I think 1995 was a set that was also banged up. They had the hologram on one side. But the 93 foil was also like that. 1993 Bowman also has foil cards that were very easily damaged but no premium for that. I’m nit saying I agree with the Derek Jeter fairytale it just is. Like the 52 Mantle being more rare because of the Topps dump. But it was a double print to begin with.
