1994 Classic
Description
1994 Classic is a 200-card Minor League set released in two series. Both the regular series and the Update Series contain the same 200-card base set -- the only difference between the two series being the addition of new inserts. The product is notable as it contains one of the few fully-licensed, non-Upper Deck issued, Michael Jordan baseball cards.
Only 99,940 serial-numbered boxes of the regular series and 12,000 of the Update Series were produced.
Distribution
36 packs per box, ten cards per pack.
