1988 Donruss Team Books
Description
The 1988 Donruss Team Books are five separate 27-card "books" issued as three pages with nine cards on each page, plus a large full-page puzzle of Stan Musial. The five teams represented are: Athletics, Cubs, Mets, Red Sox, and Yankees.
The set was distributed as a four-page book and although the puzzle page was perforated, the card pages were not. Each card is a reprint of the player's 1988 Donruss regular issue card; however, Donruss was able to include players who, due to trades or rookie call-ups, were not included in the '88 Donruss set -- the most prominent being 1988 American League Rookie of the Year Walt Weiss for the Athletics' book. Those players are sequentially-numbered as "NEW."
Books are usually sold intact. When cut from the book into individual cards, these cards are distinguishable from the regular 1988 Donruss cards since these have a 1988 copyright on the back whereas the regular issue has a 1987 copyright on the back.
