Awesome.. That was by far my favorite year of collecting. The Draft Class may never be touched again.

That set includes cards of the players named to the Top 50 NBA players (up to that point). Off the top of my head, the base set consisted of 3 cards for each player. There was also Finest, Finest Refractor and Atomic Refractor parallel versions of each base card.

I bought one pack back in 1996 and pulled an atomic refractor of Bird. I think the Atomic Refractors were inserted 1 every 96 packs or so. Jordan Atomic Refractors are the best pull for sure. Regular refractors were inserted one every 24 packs. I believe there were also some inserts in the product, I just dont know how popular or traded they are nowadays.

Ive been wanting to buy one of these boxes for a while, maybe I will go ahead and keep an eye out for them on ebay.

There is no Kobe, Iverson, etc... You get the nba top 50 players.
