Tim, I found some still in the original Worch envelopes years back, not sure if I saved the scans or not. Prior to that I had called them "Wheaties" cards. Not sure if there is a direct connection to Wheaties (I have never seen one in a Wheaties envelope or anything just that they had been cataloged as such). Being that Wheaties was a Minneapolis/Minnesota based company it may not been a large leap to assume they had something to do with the cards.


Similar to the V94 cards having been called "Canadian Butterfinger" until it came to light that they had been found in envelopes bearing the O-Pee-Chee name, confirming that that was the actual distributor.
