Picked up a mini box, not certain why. Confused

8 packs, 5 cards each C-
Box design B+
Wrapper design B
37/38 commons, 1 dupe B
Base set design B
1 Elvis fashion foil #8 A (sharp)
1 Autograph James Burton-Band member 1:144 Bouncey
Autograph design B+
1 mini Cadillac Eldorado (yellow) B
Insert ratios C

Overall B
Sometimes you get lucky. The autograph is clean and easy to read...no scribble or scratch...my compliments to the signer.

My box just arrived today and here's what I found inside:

Foils 3, 6, 7, 10, and 12. Beat the odds!
Auto of D. J. Fontana! (1 in 144 odds) Bouncey

I haven't sorted the commons yet, but the set looks nice. The photos on front and back are nice and clear and cover a lot of ground in Elvis' career.

Went to the local Walmart today and picked up 4 packs. First three packs nothing but base cards. Last pack 1/1 Yellow Printing Plate. Dance Overall nice looking cards and I was very happy with Printing Plate.

Decided to try my luck with a whole box. I got one complete base set and three foil cards. Not so lucky the second time around I guess. Oh well. Frown

A box saver still happy with these!


I just pulled this same auto! But mine has RED INK (a variant?)

Went to Wal Marts and bought a box with the car.
Question does NSU price guide list the cars with the cards?
The plastic box that the cars is shiped in are Thumb Up does anyone know where you can buy those at I have quite a few of Johnny Lighting, Hot Wheels, etc cars that I would like to put them into - any help with finding them is appreciated.

I went to Press Pass's site and did not find the car boxes or the Elvis cards there. If you know the link please post.

Hi everyone,I am new to the site and enjoy the subjects of discussion.I bought a box of Elvis Lives cards about a month ago and this is what I got: 4 foil cards,no signature card,and I didn't even get a full base set.Needless to say,I was very disappointed.I would also like to say congradulations to all the people who got a signature card!

I've been tempting to buy those small boxes with the cars at Walmart, but before I do so I was wanting to know how many cards are in the base set?

I opened 5 boxes, made 4 complete sets and a bunch of commons. Pulled a press plate and an autograph.

I am disappointed in the autograph inserts(autographs). Press Pass' sell sheet hailed that there inserted autographs of his leading ladIES. With the Yvonne Craig auto being the only auto I have seen, that would make it leading LADY!!!

Non Sports price guide shows Ann Margaret, Barbara Eden, Donna Douglas, Nancy Sinatra, Ursula Andress, Tuesday Weld, Debra Paget as inserted autographs.

I have been watching eBay for any of these autographs but as of yet, I have seen none.

Would love to see a response to my post from the guy at Press Pass that posted earlier in this thread to address the misleading advertsing of the leading LADIES autos.

I finally gave in and purchased one of the mini boxes. Got the pink car. Only one foil card and the rest were commons. The thing that really got me was like I got duplicates in the same pack. Also some of the cards backings weren't glossy, is that how it's suppose to be or are they some sort of mistake? Other than that I really liked the cards even though I didn't get any really awesome special cards.
