I have the Futera File but can’t look right now. Not sure you’ll get an actual answer to be honest. Print runs of SAMPLE cards probably wouldn’t be known. I’ll have a look in the morning though and see if the Futera File says anything.

I've got the futera files. Cricket Elite is the set that had the specialist inserts. The wording is a bit vague so I took a picture. Sorry for the enormous image.

There’s also a section about samples, but that series isn’t mentioned.

it looks like it could be one of those card sets that i guess no one really will know

I did bring this up with one of the writers of the Futera file and he said.....sample cards prior to 1995 are true to their print runs but any samples after that have pretty much more than stated (Futera went wild with printing around that time). eg. Lara Sample card

Sample cards are such a hard thing to research.
It's all hearsay. I'll be putting some sets of Bat2Ball Sample cards
up for sale in a few weeks. But no idea of price point.
