2004 Donruss Elite

Description

2004 Donruss Elite is a 199-card set released in May, 2004. The first 150 cards featured veterans while cards 151-180 featured autographed rookie cards printed to varying print runs. The final 20 cards are of retired greats and are all serial-numbered to 1000 copies.

Kaz Matsui, the hot rookie of 2004, appears on two cards: #121 and #169. Card #169 does not exist in the base set, but does exist in the parallels. Donruss-Playoff was unable to come to terms with Matsui on an autograph deal, so his autographed subset card (#169) was pulled and a new card (#121) was created.

Distribution

Checklist

Base Set

NOTE: The design of the Donruss Elite base set is identical to the that of the 2004 Donruss Elite Extra Edition set released later in the year. In fact, for the first 150 cards in the Extra Edition base set (the subset featuring active players) Donruss-Playoff essentially recycled the base set of Donruss Elite going as far as using the same photography, same back copy, and same sequential-numbering. The only difference between the two sets are the words "EXTRA EDITION" stamped in foil on the front of each card. There are some players that were replaced for Extra Edition (e.g. Bobby Higginson was replaced as card #26 with Cliff Lee), but the vast majority of the Extra Edition checklist is the same as Donruss Elite.
