John, glad you chimed in - you have the most matchbooks on your site that I've seen in one place (Also reminds me I need to follow up with you on something else). I've been a GG subscriber for about 6 months - but I did pick up the 4 Chicle related issues via backorder - I remember there was an article title - something like "Yes, I collect matchbooks" and at the time I just glanced over it. Now I can't find it. Do you remember the issue? If not, I'll go back and take a look.
On a side note, I started the thread around the time I was researching a player who's matchbook appears here:
https://msbsportscards.com/msbsports...chbooks?page=2. The Chicle set has Clark, Presnell, and Caddel, but it turns out the missing backfield mate is no slouch. He may or may not have briefly held the all-time rushing record. I posted on this site to find out, but didn't get much of a response:
