Description

1994 Stadium Club is a 720-card set released in three series of 270, 270 and 180 cards, respectively. In an effort to appeal to a younger "extreme" demographic, the design of Stadium Club underwent a radical design overhaul.

There are a number of subsets including Home Run Club (258-268), Tale of Two Players (525/526), Division Leaders (527-532), Quick Starts (533-538), Career Contributors (541-543), Rookie Rocker/Rocket (626-634) and Fantastic Finishes (714-719).

Rookie Cards include Jeff Cirillo and Chan Ho Park.

This set, available only to Topps Stadium Club Members, is a parallel of the regular Stadium Club set. This set was issued in factory set form only and includes parallel versions of all 720 base set cards as well as the Dugout Dirt, Super Team, and Stadium Club Finest insert cards. According to Topps, a maximum of 5000 sets would be available; however, some dealers believe fewer sets were actually produced.

The set was shipped in two installments: The first containing the 540 cards of the first two series, the 28 Super Teams, ten 1994 Bowman Previews, and eight Dugout Dirt inserts. The second had all 180 Series Three cards, ten Finest, and four Series Three Dugout Dirt inserts. As with the previous year's set, a custom album and serial-numbered Certificate of Authenticity were issued with the second installment.

This 12-card set features cartoons of popular players by artists Daniel Guidera and Steve Benson. The cards resemble basic Stadium Club cards except for a Dugout Dirt logo at the bottom. Backs contain the cartoon. Cards # 1-4 were found in first series packs with cards 5-8 and 9-12 were inserted in second series and third series packs respectively.

Exclusive to Series One packs, this set features one card for each of the 28 MLB teams. Collectors holding team cards could redeem them for special prizes if those teams won a division title, a league championship, or the World Series. Since the strike affected the 1994 season, Topps postponed the promotion until the 1995 season. The expiration was pushed back to January 31st, 1996
