Default 1984 SportsFirst Orioles Posters

I don't collect newspapers, but for some strange reason, I've been drawn to newspaper inserts and cutouts over the years. Previous posts have mentioned the Scrapbooks cards from 1960-63, 1970-71 Dayton Daily News cards and the 1971 Baltimore Sun newspaper posters.

I don't know much about these, but in 1984 SportsFirst printed some 10x12 posters in their paper. They are cutouts and not inserted posters. I believe SportsFirst was affiliated with the News-American newspaper in some way. Not sure if it was a separate newspaper or an insert to the News-American paper. Any info out there ??

I have six different posters, with dupes of Storm Davis and John Shelby. Luckily, the six I have include Cal Ripken Jr, Eddie Murray and Jim Palmer. I don't have any kind of checklist beyond the six shown.
