The [[1996 Denny's]] set is 28-cards -- one player from every Major League baseball team. After the previous five years with Upper Deck, Pinnacle Brands began producing the Denny's set in 1996. The fronts feature a full motion hologram player image. The backs carry player information. By ordering anything on the menu, a customer could buy two packs. Each Denny's also sponsored a drawing to win all 48 cards (the regular set and both insert sets). There was also a chance at a Instant Win card for the Collector Sets and World Series Tickets.

This product will feature the first Topps-issued cards of Willie Mays since 2004.
Each eight-card box will yield the following:
 
* Three base cards
* Two parallels
* One Relic
* One Autograph
* One Autographed Relic
 
This is nine fewer base cards, two fewer parallels, and one fewer Relic than the previous year's product, but at the same $399.99 price.

Set of the Month

The 1996 Denny's set is 28-cards -- one player from every Major League baseball team. After the previous five years with Upper Deck, Pinnacle Brands began producing the Denny's set in 1996. The fronts feature a full motion hologram player image. The backs carry player information. By ordering anything on the menu, a customer could buy two packs. Each Denny's also sponsored a drawing to win all 48 cards (the regular set and both insert sets). There was also a chance at a Instant Win card for the Collector Sets and World Series Tickets.
