1989 Donruss Walt Weiss Grand Slammer question

tulsaboy

Does anyone know why this card showed up in my cello box this evening in 2 different color schemes? Is this a known variant? I would appreciate any help.

I found the following info on the Beckett site.
"The 1989 Donruss Grand Slammers set contains 12 standard-size cards. Each card in the set can be found with five different colored border combinations, but no color combination of borders appears to be scarcer than any other. The set includes cards for each player who hit one or more grand slams in 1988. "

Were these only in cello or rack packs? I opened a wax case a few years ago and don’t remember these. Of course I wasn’t really interested in anything other than Griffey and randy.

Yeah, these are a cello-only product. I believe they're one-per in 1989 and 1990. They may have become a factory set add-on as well, my memory is atrocious.
