Description

1999 SkyBox Premium is a 300-card set released exclusively to Hobby outlets in the Summer of 1999.

Distribution

24 packs per box, eight cards per pack (MSRP: $2.69). Hobby only.

Each of the 50 Rookie/Prospect subset cards (#223-272) are available in an "Action" parallel. Whereas each of the base cards have a close-up "portrait" photo on the front, the "Action" cards have an action photo. Collectors attempting to complete a set should note that there are no other markings on the Action cards designating them such.

Star Rubies

Each of the 300 base cards are available in a "Star Ruby" parallel which is serial-numbered to 50 copies. In addition the 50 "Action" parallels (see above) were also made as Star Rubies. The Action Star Rubies are all numbered to only fifteen copies, each.
