Pro Tour 1996 Blank cards

Post by dragsamou » Fri Dec 02, 2016 9:41 am

Hi Members

Can someone verify this: All the decks have 13 blank cards, in my Pro Tour NY 1996 Box set, there's only 12 in Michael Laconto and Eric Tam decks. Thanks

http://www.magiclibrarities.net/489-rar ... blank.html

There's normally 90 cards per deck, so for Michael Loconto:
62 Cards
15 Sideboard cards
1 Bio
1 List
*12 Blank cards
Total is = 91 Cards

For Eric Tam:
60 Cards
15 Sideboard cards
1 Bio
1 List
*12 Blank cards
Total is = 89 Cards

There's a possibility that I have displaced back in the years one blank card between those 2 decks, in that case 13 blanks per deck is correct, except for Michael loconto that should have 11, but I need to make sure.

I am pretty sure that I have some Pro Tour decks that I opened for some reason and then just put back in the boxes without ever actually doing anything other than destroying their collector value.

I will check.

Thanks Mark. Normally all the decks should have 13 to fit the 90 cards per deck. In that case, Michael Loconto should have 11 (being the only exception).

60 Cards
15 Sideboard cards
1 Bio
1 List

Total is = 89 Cards
Eric Tam
58 Cards
17 Sideboard
1 bio
1 list
13 Blank Cards

So I have 90 cards (I am pretty sure that some of the deck cards are in the sideboard, I have never played with them but maybe when I originally opened them I didn't put them back properly)

Maybe cards got mixed between decks.

My decks have never all been out at the same time and all are pretty much exactly as they were packed. I doubt I would have opened two packs at the same time, I never even read the bio or checked the card list, I only just noticed they are full of Homelands and Ice Age rubbish!

Thanks Mark. 17 Sideboard cards ? When I verify mine, there was only 15 (They have the SB symbol) and match also the Deck list perfectly:

Looks like mystery is solved all the decks have 13 Blank cards except Michael Loconto with 11, which is logical as it was the only deck with 62 main cards. Thanks I will modify the info in the index of the Pro Tour NY Support cards and tab.
