I believe those were issued in 1977 and doesn't carry much monetary value.

These were issued by Jim Rowe in 1976. Each of the original 16 teams had a card of 4 of the teams top players. Similar to the Exhibit 4 in 1s. They run $2-$5 each.

I am a little confused by these. The original ones that were issued by Rowe in 1977 were bright yellow. See eBay item #320467837520 to see what I'm talking about.

It's unclear to me whether or not the original one being asked about in this post was issued by Rowe in 1977 or is a more modern attempt to fool people into buying a fake card. These newer versions that have shown up in the past few years are made on a different stock than Rowe's original 1977's.

Can anybody confirm that Rowe made these white-stocked cards in 1977?
