1997 ARL Cards??

[Brplat]

Ok hello everyone,
Im just wondering about the 1997 ARL cards, ive heard somewhere that only penrith cards were made in the series? (just curious to if that is true or not - i assumed as ive only seen penrith ones on eBay)

But down to the point, being a penrith fan i must have a set! so if anyone has a set or even some cards from the set PM me please!

Here is afew eBay links to show exactly what im raving on about

ARL 1997 Club Card~Panthers~Greg Alexander #55 SIGNED - eBay Trading Cards, Merchandise, NRL, Rugby League, Sport. (end time 19-Jan-09 11:13:43 AEDST)

ARL 1997 Club Card~Panthers~Morvin Edwards #12 SIGNED - eBay Trading Cards, Merchandise, NRL, Rugby League, Sport. (end time 19-Jan-09 11:10:50 AEDST)

(Yes i know those two cards are signed - i dont want signed ones in particular - especially if they are 30$ - 40$ each like those listings - but if anyone has signed ones i would also like to hear from you)
Thanks
Brplat

I have a couple of these.....definitley have the gower signed one....

the set was a very limited release and the john cross card was pulled so it is very difficult to locate....

they were handed out at a players signing thats why most are signed....

 

[Brplat]

Oh good to know abit of background to the cards.
None that you want to get rid of Owen?

The cards made in 97 were called Fatty's Footy Fun Pack i believe. They contained cards and POGS from all of the non-super league cards. I don't know much more than that as i collect Bulldogs and they were in super league

 

[Brplat]

Yes Coolidgee, i know about the fatty's footy fun pack cards/POGS but im talking about another series from 1997. Thanks for the imput anyway

no worries what do you have for trade?

I purchased them at $7 a single card as they are difficult to get now most were damaged or thrown out.....

I dont want to let them go for less than that.....

Going my the thread title, they were relevant ... since it says ARL, and Penrith were Superleague scum.
