1997 Pinnacle hobby box

Description

1997 Pinnacle is a 200-card, single-series, set released in February 1997. There were plans for a second series, but a Series Two was replaced by 1997 New Pinnacle. Because of this, many star players appear in the "Clout" subset, but not on a basic player card.

Distribution

Hobby/Retail: 24 packs per box, 10 cards per pack (MSRP: $2.49).

Magazine: 24 packs per box, seven cards per pack (MSRP: $1.99)
