what was the first parallel set?

[RedGoneWILD]

first question...i have a 1992 Stadium Club Member's Choice card...is this a parallel set?

second question....1990 Topps Tiffany football...were these inserted in any packs or could you only get them in a sealed set?

finally....what are some of the earliest parallel sets? I know about 1977 Topps Spanish, and like 1991 Pro Set spanish. But those you bought seperately. I'm only talking about parallels that came in the same packs. When did Wild Card come out? Were they the first ones to do it with the 5,10, 50,1000, stripe cards?

Wild Card was 91 and Tiffany were found in sets, not in packs.

1992 Topps Gold would be a parallel.

[RedGoneWILD]

Wild Card was 91 and Tiffany were found in sets, not in packs.

ok...so my suspicions were correct about Tiffany. And they were found only in a limited edition set right? not just any boxed 1990 Topps set? I've never saw one in person...are they just glossy or something?

So Wild Card would be the first parallels found in the same packs? Did Stadium Club do a member's choice in 1991? Are member's choice even parallels?

[RedGoneWILD]

1992 Topps Gold would be a parallel.

yeah, thats kind of the first one i could think of...im trying to do that 1992 topps gold set, and they seem pretty hard to find in decent shape. was just curious if there were any other parallel sets before 1992 topps gold or others that had them in 1992

92 Topps Gold is often considered the first parallel set. Not sure why 91 Wild Card is not. Does every card in the Wild Card have a stripe version or only the stars. I can't remember.

Members Choice was a set that you received for being a paid member of Stadium Club along with a few other worthless tokens.

Here's a couple other from 92
1992 Classic had the 92 Classic Gold parallel's
1992 Courtside had these Courtside Bronze, Gold, & silver parallel's


Side note, RedGoneWILD - I could find any of the topps cards you were looking for.

1990 UD had the Deion sanders sp & Jordan SP. And when did they start with the Heroes sub set. Montana / Marino
