I don't think that I have ever run across another 1996 Leaf Signature Blaster box like this one. It contains only one pack, though that pack may contain a Jeter, Rivera, A-Rod, or Frank Thomas among others...decisions, decisions!

    You know how this goes.... everyone (maybe even Mike given this is 1996 image) will say rip. So let's dispense with the formalities and open that sonuvabeotch!

    Good luck! image

    It is one pack, but you do not see unopened of this product much. A similar blaster from the extended series sold for $125 recently. Given, it does have 2 autos in the pack, it is still quite the rarity. Looking at the pictures from the recent sale, that is quite the screwdown that is inside the box!

    Don't force us to be like the other Brad Pitt character in Fight Club. We will find you and beat you down if you don't open the thing. Best part is, you can't tell anyone about it.

    -----

    I don't know. For a second there, I thought I had the end of
    this sentence worked out, and I was pretty happy about it
    until I checked and found out that the auction ended on Friday
    and not Monday.

    There are mostly perfectly good words up there, but I can't
    make heads or tails out of the way they're put together.

    Sort of like this...

    Wait, wait, first you have to translate what he said before you answer him.

    Otherwise your reply doesn't make any sense either. image
