Wow it's really hard to find card products, well at least retail. I decided, against my better judgement, to pick up a hobby pack of Diamond Kings on a recent stop in to Don's Sportcards here in Anchorage, Alaska. I had stopped in to pick up a few supplies. I hesitated on buying just this one pack, because hobby prices are INSANE!!! This pack was over $10 bucks, so let's savor it since it's been awhile since we've had a pack on here.
Two hits per box, 12 packs per box, and 8 cards per pack. We have a 1:6 chance of getting one of the hit's.
Diamond Kings does have a great selection of old timey players, HOFers, retired and current players. Let's have a look at the base design.

The backs have a small blurb, but no stats, which is kind of disappointing.
Here are the rest of the base cards:
Cards numbered over 100 are short printed, or at least that's what they say. I pulled not one, but two SPs in this pack.
