Click here.The following scan of card 561 was produced back in January 2011, long before I initiated branding standards, which is why the watermark and its orientation aren’t accurate to the way they’re typically displayed. This image was initially produced for an article I published all those years ago but since it fits the theme of this article, it works here too.
1990 Score is a 704-card set issued in fin-seal plastic packs and factory sets. The horizontal black and white Bo Jackson dual sport card hails from this set and has always been popular with collectors. Notable rookie cards include: Juan Gonzalez, David Justice, Chuck Knoblauch, Sammy Sosa, Frank Thomas, Maurice (Mo) Vaughn, Larry Walker, and Bernie Williams. A 10-card Dream Team Rookies set was issued exclusively in hobby factory sets. The set contains a variety of subtle errors with the Ryne Sandberg (561) being one of the more popular.

What’s Not Included in this Checklist:
- Uncorrected Errors (UERs): These include minor typos on card backs and/or fronts. Since these cards were never corrected, they’re just the standard cards in the set.
- Blank/Wrong Fronts/Backs: Examples beyond what’s stated are manufacturing scrap and weren’t issued in packs.
