3 Mike Cameron
Promotional samples of Ken Griffey, Jr. with five different variations were distributed to dealers and members of the Hobby media to promote SPx Series One.  Each variation is identical to base set card #130 but differs in appearance and print run.  The "base" promo has the word, "SAMPLE" printed diagonally across the back of the card.  However, the parallel variations all have the word, "FINITE" printed diagonally across the back. 


4 Ken Cloude
This promo distribution was unique and one-of-a-kind because it featured a "base" promo card and 4 parallel versions that had a different colored SPx logo on the front and were each sequentially numbered to a different print run.  It mirrored the distribution of pack-inserted parallels that were chased by collectors. 


5 Jaret Wright
The five promos were:


6 Mark Kotsay
* '''Bronze (base)''': stamped "0000/0000"
* '''Green parallel''': serial numbered to 10,000 copies
* '''Blue parallel''': serial numbered to 5,000 copies
* '''Red parallel''': serial numbered to 2,500 copies
* '''Black parallel''': serial numbered to 100 copies

'''NOTE:''' Cards #40, 41, and 45 in both sets packed out as exchange cards, which expired June 2, 1999. It is believed that these cards (which had yet to be serial-numbered) were stolen while in transit between the printer and the packout facility.

Promotional samples of Ken Griffey, Jr. with five different variations were distributed to dealers and members of the Hobby media to promote SPx Series One. Each variation is identical to base set card #130 but differs in appearance and print run. The "base" promo has the word, "SAMPLE" printed diagonally across the back of the card. However, the parallel variations all have the word, "FINITE" printed diagonally across the back.

This promo distribution was unique and one-of-a-kind because it featured a "base" promo card and 4 parallel versions that had a different colored SPx logo on the front and were each sequentially numbered to a different print run. It mirrored the distribution of pack-inserted parallels that were chased by collectors.

The five promos were:

  • Bronze (base): stamped "0000/0000"
  • Green parallel: serial numbered to 10,000 copies
  • Blue parallel: serial numbered to 5,000 copies
  • Red parallel: serial numbered to 2,500 copies
  • Black parallel: serial numbered to 100 copies
