1998 NFL Topps Finest Football - Series 1

The 1998 Finest set was issued in two series totaling 270 cards. The fronts feature color action player photos printed on 29 pt. card stock, while the backs display player information. Series 1 contains the subset Rookies (121-150). The 120 cards in Series 2 are organized by player position, each of which is identified by a different graphic.

Randomly inserted in both series one and two packs at a rate of one in 12, the 270-card Refractor parallel set was printed with the usual "Refractor" rainbow printing technology along with a thin plastic protector. Series 1 packs included cards #1-120 while Series 2 packs contained the rookies from Series 1 (#121-150) and all of the Series 2 cards. A No-Protector version of the refractors was also randomly inserted in Series 1 and 2 packs. Although there are slight differences in the appearance between both series, all No-Protector Refractors can be identified by the foil refractive printing on the card back.
