Description

1996 Flair was a 400-card set released in July, 1996. A year after releasing a horizontally-oriented etched-foil set, '96 Flair kept the etching but utilized a vertical orientation. In a twist, all 400 base cards were printed on either gold or silver-foil; thus, each player had a gold and silver variation of their base card. However, unlike a traditional parallel, half the total production run was in silver, the other half gold so there was no difference in scarcity between the variations.

NOTE: The entire base set is available in silver and gold variations, both produced equally. The "Gold" cards have an etched gold foil background with the player's name and "Flair '96" logo in silver text, while the "Silver" cards are the opposite. There are no variations on the backs.
