In celebration of the 1990 NFL Draft, Pro Set created a four-card mini set that featured three cards of Illinois standout quarterback, Jeff George, and Alabama powerhouse linebacker, Keith McCants.
These test cards sought to predict the player taken with the number one pick of the draft and where he might go given several different scenarios.
McCants' only card showed him as a member of the Falcons while George was shown potentially landing with the Falcons, Colts, or Patriots.
After the Falcons traded the first pick to the Colts, Jeff George's fate was sealed as Indianapolis drafted him with high hopes of being their franchise quarterback for years to come.
McCants wound up in Tampa as the number four pick overall.
Neither players' career lived up to expectations, but George's card is worth more in top grade.
There is also a gold-border version of George's card that is tougher to find and likely pricier than these three.
A limited series of 15 unique most valuable 1990 pro set football cards. Love them or hate them, 1990 Pro Set football cards will always be known for the incredible amount of errors and variations scattered throughout the set.
To achieve its vision of being a "living set," the company was constantly updating, revising, removing, and replacing various cards.
While ambitious in spirt, that body of work ultimately resulted in one of the most notoriously variation-laden sets in hobby history.
