1986 Wally Joyner Signed #'ed 232/500 Star Co, Rare Item!!. Here is some info on the Star Co cards…

Star Company produced cards in limited quantities,

with most production runs at or below 5,000 cards.

They were sold in hobby shops by team in sealed,

transparent plastic bags, known to many as

"polybags." Cards were made available nationally

through a small network of a half dozen so-called

master distributors although some parts of the mid-

west and various southern states received little

attention among the distributor network. Many cards

were initially purchased in response to ads in sports

card magazines and even at various sporting events,

including minor league baseball and hockey games.

Sometimes limited Silver, Gold and Platinum promo

cards were inserted one in every X sets, making for

the rarest Star cards. Some sets were issued with the

top card autographed and hand numbered, with a

paper COA included.
