They were available for purchase from the publisher, but I am not sure if that meant you could buy all of the cards or selected ones from a checklist or something. Ruth shows up a lot (relatively speaking) but other major stars like Joe Jackson never turn up - I am not sure if I have ever seen a Jackson for sale.
