Fleer used it to mark the Ripken cards to pull out and replace with the black box version. They printed entire 132 sheets of just the Bill Ripken Black Box cards to replace the pulled cards. The Ripken card is on the bottom of the sheet so a maintenance guy run a saw up the stacks of sheets to mark them.
These 2 cards came from Donovan Ryan who was a big name in Ripken errors back in the day. Him along with a fellow Net54 member worked with GAI/Global Authority on grading them properly.
