Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>They were made in the '50s and sold at ballparks if I recall...I have seen a Cobb and a Matty as well. Not wonderfully rare but still interesting. I know they are listed somewhere in the SCD but can't remember offhand.<br /><br />Joshua

Posted By: <b>Shane Killian</b><p>Thanks. I couldn't find information on it anywhere despite my best google-ing efforts. I thought it was interesting so i picked it up for 3.00. I think i got my money's worth

Posted By: <b>Shane Killian</b><p>Yeah, I saw a few on the Austrailia Ebay but they were shiney and all yellow. They had a Cobb, Ruth and Matty.
