Notes: Hot Shots Premiere Edition (or Hot Shots 1) was one of the first adult card sets to receive nationwide distribution. A set of eight promotional cards were released, they can be identified by the very fine print legend "Promotional card" printed in one corner of the card front. Promotional cards for this edition were only released as sets of 8 cards. A randomly inserted hologram card of Brandy was available. Some of the Brandy holograms were signed by Brandy, many were released later through special offers. Old stock from this release was dumped in the Chronicles edition (including extra holograms). The edition of 432 cards was supposed to be released as a full set or 100% collation to a box, that is--36 packs in a box times 12 cards to a pack would yield all 432 cards. In fact, collation on this set was extremely poor. This set was released when sports card sets were between 500 and 700 cards, and a 432 card set was not expected to be extraordinary, despite the subject matter. Most images were from the files of photographer J. Stephen Hicks and aliases were used for all the models, some of whom are Penthouse pets or porn stars. Cards 357 and 358 were not numbered, the joke on one card starts with "I came home" the other starts with "A University professor". The Fred T. Murray Hot Shots set was issued before this set and has nothing to do with cards issued by D B Cardiff.
