This 1989 Perez-Steele Autographed Celebration set is complete with signed examples for all 41 cards that could have possibly been signed in the 44 card set, each of which has been encapsulated by PSA/DNA. The remaining three cards in the set (Gomez, Terry, and J. Johnson) could not have been signed because each of the respective players passed away during the production of the set.
