1988 Donruss was released during the run of years where Donruss issued a series of dark bordered sets (’85-’89). The 1988 issue has an interesting piped border design somewhat reminisce of the tubing in early Mario Brothers video games. Key RCs include: Roberto Alomar, Jay Buhner, Ken Caminiti, Ron Gant, Tom Glavine, Mark Grace, Gregg Jefferies, and Matt Williams. The small number of errors that were later corrected in 1988 Donruss are listed below.
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.
- Checklists: There are two unique versions of every checklist in the set with each starting and stopping at different numbers. They appear to have similar values.
- Back Text Variations: Some cards in 1988 Donruss can be found with two unique variations of text arrangements on card backs. While some are rarer than others, the difference in value appears to be minor.
