Does anyone know of autographs inserted into the 1991 Score set? I've been wondering if they inserted Mantle, can't find any info, though.

I think 91 had the Chuck Knoblough auto in the 1st set.
Mantle in the 2nd set.

It's been a WHILE, but if I remember correctly, they auto's didn't come in packs (as the same as the hot rookies). They came in this like packaging of loose cards in a hot wheels type packaging (cardboard back with bubble plastic covering the goods) that had like 50 cards and in those were the ones you could get the auto's and each one came with a hot rookie insert.

Ohhh, you're right, Iggy! I remember now. The Ted Williams in the 1992 UD lo series came in the packs, as did the Bench/Joe Morgans in the hi series. The Mantle/Griffey Jr. were in the 1994 UD set but were in their own seperate packaging too. I'm going to buy a ton of 1992 UD boxes in hopes of getting the Ted Williams /2500. I'll let everyone here know if I succeed :)

It would be cheaper for you just to buy the autograph card rather than spending the money trying to get it from packs. It's probably some insane amount of packs you have to open up just to pull one.

Probably about 500 boxes and $10,000 later, you'd pull one. Better to spend the $500 for it than wasting the money on the packs.

You could probably get 91 score boxes for 5 each or cases for 50.

I've seen so much product from 90,91,92 sell for dirt cheap. Mainly fleer donruss and score.

The Mantle auto was issued in Series two packs along with the 7 card set.

Common Mantle 1-7 15$
Auto 400$ ( these are high book.

j.e.lew, so if I bought a few boxes of 1991 Score Series 2, I'd have a chance of getting the Mantle?

Yes, a slim chance.
Try 92 Score series 2. It has autos of Mantle, plus Musial, plus Yas.
It even has cards signed by all 3.
A slim chance there also. I opened 4 boxes and got one of each that were unsigned.

Cool. How much did they cost you combined and where did you get them from? Thanks!

It was several years ago when I was on Vacation in Wisconsin.
This guy had 4 boxes at $15 apiece and I took a shot at it.
It was cheap fun.
