Hideo Nomo "Rookie"
A special card of Hideo Nomo (#251) was issued later in the year to those dealers who ordered a specific number of cases directly from Pinnacle Brands. Despite not being issued in packs, the card is attainable on the secondary market and a set is considered complete with it; however, it is not considered a "true" rookie card.

Parallels
Artist's Proof
Artist's Proofs fully paralleled the base set and featured a holographic finish over the areas of the card fronts with gold foil. Based upon the announced print run of 4950, 24-box cases, collectors were quickly able to calculate that, although each card was not serial-numbered, only 475 copies of each Artist's Proof were produced, which was a very low print run total at the time. Artist's Proofs were seeded into packs at the rate of 1:24, or one-per-box.
Like with the base set, a Hideo Nomo Artist's Proof was randomly distributed directly to Hobby dealers and never inserted in packs.
