Nice display item. I have not seen any 'cards' from such a set. Is that a copyright date on the Gehrig example shown on the sheet?

Mysto Magic was trademarked by the AC Gilbert Toy company as children magic sets. You can find a ton of items as it was a very popular toy line.

My guess is it was small promo or point of sale item at toy stores. The water activated "trick" reveal lends to it being part of that line.

Just a guess, but I would put my money on AC Gilbert.

To me it looks like a copyright symbol and possibly a date just above the big white "1" that is encircled in red. Too bad that area isn't clearer.

That, I can find out. It looks like staple? punctures to me.

Some bits of evidence...

The Gehrig card mentions his 2,130 game streak, so it had to have been produced after May, 1939. Plus, it states that it is "still a record," so it must have been produced years later?

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
