Thank you for continuing to opine on these.

The numbers seem to be written on the original source and not the finished strips themselves.

Also, I should've mentioned earlier that they are on a thicker cardboard (think a little thicker than a cereal box) stock as opposed to a thinner strip card stock, so the possibility they were cut from a box is plausible.

The actual sizes are quite small, about three inches tall, Baker is obviously a little shorter than that.

Also, I noticed that on the bottom of the back of my Chance there seems to be another Chance front slightly showing. See image below with the bottom of the back of Chance flipped over and placed next to the front. Interesting, no?
