1997/98 Pinnacle Inside Stoppers
These discs were randomly inserted into tins of Pinnacle Inside (1:7 tins) and feature mask shots of NHL goalies of the day.
There are 24 discs in the set and I decided to go after the set when I purchased a few tins at the local dollar store a while back. I pulled a few discs (including the Patrick Roy....which comes in as the highest booking disc).
I never really pursued the project with any sort of effort. Rather, I would just pick up the odd item I'd need whenever one happened to land in my lap. I wouldn't pay top dollar for them as most people treat them as throwaways.
Not a bad side project for those who like goalie masks....so it's right up my alley.
By the way, I'm down to needing 2....Grant Fuhr and Ron Hextall.
Cool set. I have a Kevin Hodson that I pulled from a tin back when they came out.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the discs you used to get on the bottom of slurpee cups!
ReplyDeleteIndeed! They remind me too of those.
ReplyDeleteThese ones are a little bigger and they have stats and stuff on the back.
