Those cards that were "limited" to something like 5000 or 10000. I have a couple of the Classic Draft Pick sets that are "limited" to something like 145,000 sets. Does Topps even produce 145,000 of its base set anymore?
I did manage to snag a Dawson Elite from the 1991 set. Sadly, it had a dinged corner, but I still managed to sell it to a dealer for $10 at the time. I remember Fleer's ProVisions being briefly popular, and they advertised the hell out of them. Every hobby publication must have had a full page add pushing those cards.
