Melting Pot
Comic Images - 1993

Notes:  There are ten front-color-background variations, noted in the list below. Usually
with Comic Images chromium sets, the "natural" set size is 100 cards numbered 1-90
with 10 cards with two variations each.  Each copy of the variation cards is equally
abundant, in other words, there will be twice as many cards numbered 82 as cards
numbered 81 and they will be split roughly 50-50 between the two varieties.  Bill
White reports that his box indeed matched this pattern, and you can consider the
set size to be 100.  However, "lucky me" found that my box did not follow the
pattern, and there was only one type of each variation-card inside.  If I judged the
set just from this box, I would call the series a 90-card set without variations. Because
both types of distribution are observed, we can conclude that the variation card
numbers may be slightly "short printed" and a 100-card set with variations would
be somewhat more difficult to complete through trading -- especially if you break
down a box and find that it contains only one version of the variation cards.

Also issued was a parallel HoloChrome set, inserted at an average of around two per
box; this parallel  set also had the same ten background-color variations. Thanks much 
to Bill for the update and corrections!

Box: 36 packs of 7 cards.
Common 90-card sets: approx. 2.79 per box if collation were perfect.
