AJW Official Cards Collection Vol. 1 Card List and Review
|
In my collection I have a wide variety of Joshi card sets from over the years, many of which do not have a card list anywhere on the Internet. So I hope to slowly add more of them to Joshi City, with the next set being a full card set released by All Japan Women.
Card Set: AJW Official Cards Collection Vol. 1
Release Date: 1996
Number of Cards in Set: 62 base cards, 4 premium cards
Cost per Set: ¥2,000
Where to Purchase: Third Party Vendors
Tracking down information for the AJW Official Cards Collection Vol. 1 set was not an easy task, since there aren’t a lot of details for the set on the Internet. Produced in 1996, the set includes all the main wrestlers of the Joshi promotion All Japan Women. Perhaps even more significantly, the set also includes cards of some of their stars from the 70s and 80s, providing a look back at the wrestlers that helped make All Japan Women one of the best promotions in the world. A second volume was produced as well, which included the younger wrestlers in AJW plus wrestlers from other promotions.
The cards were sold as a complete set, not in packs, and all sets include the 62 base cards. I am not sure if they also included all four premium cards or each set only had a limited number of premium cards, as the box I purchased did not have any premium cards (it was already opened). It did however have all of the base cards, which I scanned below. I really love this set as it covers the full history of All Japan Women (as of 1996) with high quality pictures of wrestlers from across the different eras.
Here is the official checklist:
