Bob.....These cards were issued regionally in individual packages of Twinkies & Cupcakes They also served as packaging reinforcement. As a result most of the cards encountered, now & then, will have noticeable staining on them and will exhibit wear and / or creases. With NONE of the excess paper removed, there are five different sizes / formats for this set....A) 2 1/4 x 4 1/2, B) 3 1/8 x 4 3/16,C) 4 1/2 x 4 1/4, D) 6 x 4, E) 4 1/2 x5 5/8..... It's possible that there are more regional variations in format that exist which I am not familiar with. Hope this helps...Mark
