There are a lot of variables with different backs in this set, so for the master cubs collection, there's a lot of cards to hunt down.

There is also a sticker set that has different backs called Super Star Backs, which features five legendary Cubs players along with numerous fronts that are connected to them.

Ralston Purinia had 12 cards in 1989, one of which was a Cubs player.

Size of Cards

Cards measure approximately 2 1/2" by 3 3/8"

Basic Features

Dog food is the first thing that springs to mind when considering Ralston Purinia. But this time, it's kid-friendly cereal for breakfast. A cereal that was created to mimic the flavor of chocolate chip cookies was called Cookie Crisp. The cereal box had two cards and a mail-in certificate within it, all wrapped in cellophane.

This is one of the better MSA sets, with the word Superstars at the top of the card and the player's name, team, and position beneath the full-color photo. The team logos are absent as usual. Career statistics are displayed on the backs.

1988 Classic Blue & Red Cubs Checklist

Number of Cards

50 cards in the 1988 Classic Blue also 50 cards in the 1988 Classic Red included 4 Cub players.

Size of Cards

The size of the cards are standard-size 2 ½ x 3 ½

Basic Features

Both of these 50-card sets were distributed as part of a trivia board game. The card backs contain several trivia questions (and answers) that are used to play the game. A blue or red border frames the full-color photo of the player. The game, or "travel set," includes a mini board, three game pieces, dice, but no cards. For some reason, most likely because of greed, you had to buy the cards separately.

Let's be honest. Not the most entertaining set out there. The game is a little entertaining, and the triva on the back of the cards is intriguing.
