1993 Donruss Elite Dominators

Description

1993 Donruss Elite Dominators is a 20-card set, offered exclusively for sale on the Shop at Home television network.

In a series of programs broadcast December 8th-13th, 1993, viewers were offered the opportunity to purchase a factory-sealed box of either 1993 Donruss Series One or Series Two, which included one Elite Dominator card produced especially for the promotion, shrink-wrapped directly to the box. Each box retailed for $99 plus $6 for postage and handling.

5000 serial-numbered sets were produced and half of the cards for Nolan Ryan, Juan Gonzalez, Paul Molitor, and Don Mattingly were signed by the player. The entire print run of 100,000 cards were reportedly purchased by the Shop at Home network and were to be offered periodically over the network.

Distribution

One Elite Dominator plus one 1993 Donruss Series One or Two waxbox (SRP: $99). Exclusive through the Shop at Home Network.
