This took some time as the whites are harder to find than the grays, and some whites seemed harder than others...even though the set was produced on two 36 card sheets

While looking for white backs I also finished the set in "proof" form (undeckled cards cut from sheets). Unfortunately my proof set has both white and gray backs ( sigh...a problem for a future day)

I also picked up a full set on uncut sheets

The set may not be that popular with collectors because it is B&W and over sized, but I have always admired it
I guess so! That's a very nice set to have/own!
