2002 Donruss The Rookies

Description

2002 Donruss The Rookies is a 110-card update set that was released in December, 2002. The product is patterned after the post-season Rookies sets produced by Donruss-Playoff's predecessor in the 80s and 90s; however, unlike those sets, the 2002 edition was issued in pack form.

Rookie cards from various other 2002 Donruss baseball products were also produced and randomly inserted into The Rookies packs.

Distribution

Hobby/Retail: 24 packs per box, 5 cards per pack (MSRP: $3.29). 16 boxes per case.
