I know that by 1976 Enor was making the nine-pocket sheets for cards. I know this because that's the year I started buying the complete Topps sets (from Larry Fritsch), and I remember putting all the cards (2 to a pocket) in the sheets. These were the sheets that contained mass quantities of PVC, and after a while, they turned very oily.
