It is a bit confusing. The ones pictured are relatively rare. The 48 card set is common and an enormous hoard of them was bought by Festberg- he was selling singles and complete sets for years. I don't know the distribution of that set, but would guess it was national. Jackie was a god in black neighborhoods, especially in Brooklyn, so I think the subset of Jackie Robonson cards was printed in relatively small numbers for a specific target audience.
