Description
1998 Flair Showcase is a 480-card, multi-fractured, multi-tiered, set released by Fleer in July, 1998. There are 120 players released on four different, repeating, levels, each with it's own front design: Flair (also known as "Row 3"), Style (Row 2), Grace (Row 1), and Showcase (Row 0). The Row 3 cards are the easiest to find, while the Row 0s the toughest.
Each "Row" is then sub-divided into four, 30-card, sub-sections, each with it's own reverse design: Showtime, Showstopper, Showdown, and Showpiece. Each of the 120 players in the set has one card in each of the four rows, and one card in each of the backs.
