Jack Glenn of New York, NY won the grand prize of all 40 complete sets from 1952-91.

I don't recall how much I opened, but I got exactly nothing.

I had not heard whether the grand prize was won or not. I still have a couple of unopened boxes. Cards from 1952 through 1956, and cards with a then book value of $ 50 or more had to be redeemed by mail. Cards that I saw were not in top condition. But Topps did obtains three full set runs, one for the grand prize, then one for individual set winners, and one for the single card inserts in packs or through winner cards

Does anyone have a picture or own a winning game card? Even for the lower tier prizes? The cards state that they will have an X on them.

I do not have one. There used to be some pictured here but not now. I have a near complete set of the A,B, C and D cards ( 264) ...missing only 12411 ( A), 12478 ( B) and 12545 ( D)

I have put together a handful of "near sets" of these and there were always 5-6 that I could never find, I'm willing to bet those are your numbers.

Too bad they pulled the image, I've always wanted to see one. I used to think the "SP" numbers were X----- rather than A----- etc etc.

Bah, I should have posted this here instead of the other link ...

Regarding the glow light test. Based upon this pic:



Are there 4 glow back variations we can chase?

Also, does anyone out there have either of the 2 cansecos (regular and all star versions) that don't glow ... or glow and have the lighter cardboard background?

Darn, I replied in the other thread first.....

Should I copy it into here or just leave well enough alone.

Or ....

Is it possible for a moderator to move a post?

Yeah, I think I have at least one of those Cansecos, but now I guess I am going to have to go back into my collection and see if there are multiple glow variations...sigh.

This is the never ending project. I am so frustrated from reading this post and the other one, I think I will go right out and buy an unopened '91 box on eBay.
