	Inserted one per Home Team Advantage and one per Hobby box, these cards feature sixteen of the leading players in an oversize version. The photos are the same as the regular Topps cards. We have numbered the cards with A and B prefixes to denote series one versus series two distribution~~, although Topps decided to number each~~ series 1 ~~through~~ 8.		Inserted one per Home Team Advantage and one per Hobby box, these cards feature sixteen of the leading players in an oversize version. The photos are the same as the regular Topps cards. We have numbered the cards with A and B prefixes to denote series one versus series two distribution as both series are sequentially-numbered 1-8. Series Two cards are numbered "X of 8."

	This set is an autographed parallel of the Nolan Ryan Reprint insert (see above). For brevity's sake, the checklist is listed above. The 14 odd-numbered cards were inserted into Series One Hobby and HTA packs, while the 13 even numbered cards were in Series Two Hobby and HTA packs.

	'''~~NOTE:~~''' Jerry Koosman did NOT sign any of his 1968 Rookie card.		'''NOTES'''

			* All autographs inserted into packs have a "CERTIFIED AUTOGRAPHED ISSUED" stamp on the front.
			* Jerry Koosman did NOT sign any of his 1968 Rookie card. Some dual signed Koosman/Ryan cards have emerged; however, either these were the regular unautographed insert (which does not have the authentication stamp on the front), or the autographed Ryan card, with Koosman added on at a later date. This does NOT necessarily mean these Koosman/Ryan autographs are inauthentic; it's just that they aren't certified by Topps.

	If the featured player was awarded player of the week status (as determined by Topps) his card was then redeemable at season's end for a special set of all the weekly winners. Only 100 of each MVP Promotion card was produced. The exchange deadline to redeem winning cards was December 31st, 1999.

	The winning cards were the following numbers (which correspond to the regular Topps set): 35, 52. 70, 96, 101, 125, 127, 139, 159, 198, 248, 265, 290, 292, 300, 315, 340, 346, 350, 352, 355, 360, 365, 416, and 418. Since Topps destroyed these Winner exchange cards once they received them, they're in noticeably shorter supply than other cards from this set. Despite this fact, no noticeable premiums in secondary trading levels have been detected for these cards		The winning cards were the following numbers (which correspond to the regular Topps set): 35, 52. 70, 96, 101, 125, 127, 139, 159, 198, 248, 265, 290, 292, 300, 315, 340, 346, 350, 352, 355, 360, 365, 416, and 418.
