Size is different, although they don't look like 5x6 to me--that would be more square. I assume they're blank-backed.

Stock is different too, and Pepsi logo has black box outline that does not appear on the regular cards. The name box seems a darker shade of blue, although that could just be scans.

Maybe cut from a larger advertising piece? No fold lines and I don't see how they could have been packaged with soda product of the time. Could be a mail-in premium but you'd think they would have made them sturdier, unless they are printed on heavy paper. Interesting.

Have 4 different
Actually more like 4 1/2 × 6 1/2
Yes blank backed

If the backs are blank I would guess they were cut from a poster put up at the point-of-sale advertising the cards availability.

Very cool companions to the card set Larry. Where did you find them? I agree they likely came from an advertising poster at point of sale.

Pepsi
 
Doing an inventory, found them
Probably bought them 25 years ago

I bet your inventory makes for a great read Larry

It’s cool to still see stuff I’ve never seen before surface.

If you look closely at the edges you can see they were hand cut off of something, more than likely an advertising poster or display as mentioned.

COOL! I agree with others assessments. Cut off something. Now you have to find what.
