1992 Leaf Chicago Cubs

Number of Cards

1992 Donruss Leaf has 528 cards which there are 22 Cubs players

Card Dimensions

The standard-sized cards are the following dimensions: 2-1/2" by 3-1/2"

Basic Features

The 1992 Leaf is a 528-card set, issued in two separate 264-card series. Each pack contained one black-and-gold parallel card. The basic card fronts feature color action player photos on a silver card face. The player's name appears in a black bar, edged at the bottom by a thin red stripe. The team logo overlaps the bar in the right corner. The normal stats and bio were on the back, which included another photo.

Every Cubs fan has to get this fairly significant 1990s set with fantastic action images of players because 1992 Leaf was one of the first sets to include an insert.

1992 Leaf Parallels Black Gold

Every 1992 Leaf pack contained a Black Gold card. The cards are similar to the standard Leaf cards, with the exception that the card face is black rather than silver and emphasized by a gold foil inner border. This was a revolutionary idea at the time. The horizontal backs also feature a gold background rather than a silver one. The collection is notable because it is among the earliest instances of a parallel in collecting.

The most promising newbies from 1992 are honored. Full-bleed color action shots are featured on the fronts, with gold foil border stripes adding extra flair. The player's name appears in a black bar that runs between the bottom two diamonds and a gold foil diamond appears at each corner of the image frame.
