Nice pics to get the sign to show up that good. Fairly rare compared to the other versions. I have had maybe 15-20 of them at the most over the years.

Maybe it is the lighting, but anyone else notice there is no "pube" showing on either of those cards?

These are the clearest examples I have ever owned. Anybody know which case code is the cutoff to get clear ones like this?

Nope - there really is no exact number, tbh.

I only have one of that version left. Are you talking about the little red squiggle thing by FLEER. Seems to be fainter on the one I have plus the posters pics are so jacked up bright you would never see it anyway.

Weirdly there is no known system with them. You can get different versions out of the same case.

So what's the latest/highest known case code that a FF or Marlboro has come out of? I have a case from march of 89.

Not sure on the Marlboro. One of the guys posting in this thread might have a decent guess. I don't remember the Ripken FF code but a quick internet search should tell you, it is a known number.

Any hints of the Marlboro were well gone before the FF was corrected. I would estimate late Nov 1988 and early Dec 1988 would be the best shot at the RJ variations.
