I really liked the idea but why did the set never appeared in the actual release, is it because of that Pat Burns died at same year as the release?
Bure + Dino + Gilmour has since its release been introduced in HOF.

I may of course be a bit biased (whatelse haha?) because my PC-player should appearing at none less than whooping 7 cards on the set...
But has this ever happened earlier with that one set got oulled off before its release?

I know that it was a season that a set of Parkhurst Gold /50 never got produced...02-03 something...

Did some cards got signed or pulled out so fast when Pat Burns sadly passed away and none of those cards got signed yet?
I'm really curious about this because I was really looking forward the set and still think that it was a great concept (something new).

What's the history behind it?
If someone knows...?

If you search in this forum and others you'll find some ideas. From what I understand, at least one of the players didn't return cards, or the deal fell through or something. So I have never seen any of the cards either and have since adjusted my set. I'm sure there are some out there someplace, they always have their ways of getting out.

And someone dying doesn't seem to be an excuse for me. I'm saying this because I have an "auto" card from "Donruss" from a set where the player died while the set was being produced, and it just says "NO AUTOGRAPH" on the sticker.
