Rodney's Cardboard:1993 Wild Card Stripes

One of the harder chases in the 90's for Rodney Hampton, is the darn Wild Card product. There are so many branches of parallels to these things and they are not easy to find either.

Fortunately, a lot of four of those parallels from the 1993 version popped up for Rodney and thanks to @CardpocalypseNC I was able to add them!

These "stripes" parallels are leveled from 5,10,20,50,100,and 1,000. I have no idea for the odds on these or if the higher the number the more rare they are. And the stripes, I don't get. There are technically no stripes on the card and other than a number and change of foil color, there really isn't any difference in these parallels.

LAAAAAAAMMME. But they are needed.

This lot included four of the lower tiered ones

5 Stripe. If you stare long enough you will see the five on the left embedded in the gray area

(I included the card back but all look the same)

10 stripe

20 Stripe

50 Stripe

The cards all together. You can see the numbers better in this one.

When it comes to cards like these and sets like this, there is no better relief than to know they are crossed off. I am very thankful for the help by Tim so I don't have to worry about ever finding these again.

How do you guys feel about sets like this? Frustrating? Interesting?
