“My father in-law invented the Flicker Flippers game and was about to go into production with Fleer, when many of the player's agents found out. The players were enthusiastic but not giving them their cut, naturally the money aspect killed the whole thing. Fortunately my father in law saved about 80 of these reply cards and about 100 of the signed contracts.”
Tom,
Welcome to net54!
This is terrific background info! I wonder why the seller didn't give me the same info when I posed the same question?

Too bad these didn't come to fruition, but at least now I have the story. What did the reply card look like? Do you mind posting a scan if it's not too much trouble or describe what the the content of the reply card was?
Thanks!!
