These packs contains 15 cards.
The regular set consists of 784 cards which were issued in two separate series of 396.
The inserts (or subsets) include Rated Rookies , All-Stars and Highlights.
Series one were in blue foil packs and Series two in red foil packs.
Pack 1:

#BC7 Colorado Rockies
#421 Lance Dickson RR Cubs
#701 Jim Lindeman Phillies
#705 Jaime Navarro Brewers
#709 John Cerutti Tigers
#714 Mitch Webster Dodgers
#719 Sid Fernandez Mets
#734 Billy Ripkin Orioles
#739 Tony Castillo Mets
#740 Sammy Sosa White Sox
#743 Steve Wapnick White Sox

Pack 2:
#429 Ryne Sandberg AS Cubs
#555 Gossage and Ryan Highlights Rangers
#560 Luis Alicea Cardinals
#564 Deion Sanders Braves
#565 Walt Terrell Tigers
#570 Scott Cooper Red Sox
#609 Carlos Quintana Red Sox
#612 Daryl Boston Mets
#635 Matt Young Red Sox
#641 Omar Vizquel Mariners
#642 Rick Sutcliffe Cubs
#646 Jack Howell Padres
#650 Chuck McElroy Cubs
#655 Scott Ray Cardinals
#660 Steve Frey Expos

The second pack had 3 Red Sox, which is a surprising ratio. These cards didn't set the card collecting world alight and I bought 6 packs for 99p on e-bay UK. The design is not stimulating but the players pictures on the front are large and usually action shots. The Colorado Rockies logo was the first of the type I had seen from this set. I presume it was because they were an expansion team.
