Default Amazing find of unopened boxes (Star Player Candy, Tattoo orbits, many more)

Posted By: Paul

This is truly amazing. A newly discovered Star Candy Johnson (issued in 1929? why?) The first ever discovery of Star Candy packaging, and association of the set with Dockman's. (Will the name of the set now be changed? Does the Star Candy name appear anywhere on the Dockman's box?)

An entirely new set of cards with Lefty Grove (in at least two color variations, Brad).

It's all just amazing.

But the strangest thing to me is the claim that W553s are not strip cards. Maybe they were issued in both strip and factory cut forms. If none of them were issued as strips, it sure seems odd that children's scissors had a particular affinity for this set of cards.
