1983 Donruss
Description
1983 Donruss is a 660-card set. The design is, literally, a mirror image of the previous year's set with a glove replacing a ball. The first 26 cards make up the Diamond Kings subset, all featuring original artwork from Dick Perez. Each pack contained three pieces of a Ty Cobb puzzle.
Rookies include Wade Boggs, Tony Gwynn, and Ryne Sandberg.
Distribution
36 packs per box, fifteen cards plus three Ty Cobb puzzle pieces per pack (MSRP: $0.30).

Ty Cobb Puzzle
In order to get around the MLB licensing requirement that all baseball cards be tied with "something," Donruss created a 63-piece jigsaw puzzle of Ty Cobb. Each wax pack contained one, three-piece, panel; and factory sets had the full set of 21 panels.
