If the bold part is true it is news to me. I have been hoarding them since I pack pulled one back in the day. I have only ever seen 11 total and own 7 of them. Yes I know there are 2 on eBay. One is listed by a great guy but he prices things so high Deans pricing seems like a bargain basement giveaway box. The other seller more than doubled their price when I made what I consider a reasonable offer. Last edited by bnorth; 09-28-2021 at 05:32 PM. |

Hi Ben, as I was mostly trying to open early runs, I mostly stayed away from the later print runs (if codes were known). I know I hit many Boggs, but I did not really place them aside as he wasn't someone I was looking for. Certainly, they are far scarcer without the print dot than with, but I know I have many of them sitting somewhere in my common bins. The same applies to Kevin Romine - his card was corrected very late in the print run, so there are far fewer corrected Romine's available than the original error showing Randy Kutcher batting.

I most definitely will Ben, now that I know you're looking for these.

The blue count is right around 5 I think. I’ve included a couple more images of the blue box card I mentioned earlier. They aren’t the greatest quality, but in hand the card is almost a royal blue and yet with any decent source of light you can easily read the lettering in Marlboro as no editing is done specifically to the lettering like the other versions and there is no bubble. Does someone know if the shop owner pulled any other variations in the additional sets? If the sets all came from the same case, it would be interesting to see what else was in there. |

What is this no dot variation of Wade Boggs? I need to know what it is I am rummaging for.
I have an unopened 1989 Fleer Cello Box I bought years ago, two of them actually. I opened one for the Ripken errors. Both boxes were advertised as error cellos. And they were. I never paid any attention to the RJ's when I opened them and have no idea now as to what version I had pulled from the box. Does anyone have any mfg dates that they are aware of for the RJ Errors? The code on the box I have is 8611-A, not sure if that helps anyone, but there it is.

![]() As far as the cello boxes - these were made later in the production run, so the number of errors that are found in cello boxes isn't near what they are in wax boxes. Racks & cellos did produce a few different versions of the RJ/Marlboro card, but not nearly as many as the wax. |

on the back of the boggs, next to "throws right" is a giant dot on almost all of the cards. i've never seen one without the dot, but sounds like ben has a handful of them.

![]() Card without dot is the rare version. To keep it kinda on topic here is a 9 year old pic of the second clearest Marlboro version I paid $9 for at the time. Also that is one more cool thing about COMC. You can go back and see pics of every card you have ever bought there. Last edited by bnorth; 09-29-2021 at 05:10 PM. |
