The first series features sequentially numbered cards, the remainder marked only with the series number. Card size is 2-3/4" x 4-1/2" for the first series and 2-3/4" x 4-1/4" for the last three 30 card series."
Your cards appear in the checklist as #1-Griffith, #3-Ganley, #27-Ames
But your cards seem too thick for what is described in the catalog and your cards aren't numbered if they are blank backed. So maybe they were cut off an advertisement for the set?

As usual, impressive analysis and detective work...never ceases to amaze me.
