Today we have the Michael Schechter Associates (MSA) discs. The MSA discs were used for advertising by several different companies by having their logo on the back of the baseball discs. Below are the Brooks Robinson MSA discs for 1976. I guess I should have pictured the fronts as well, but they look “almost” all the same…
1976 Buckmans Discs
1976 Carousel Discs

1976 Safelon Discs
1976 Towne Club Discs

Mark,
I've always been a fan of the items MSA produced over the years. I don't know how important variations are to you, but here are a few from the 1976 discs.
First, here's the front of the Brooks Robinson. Like Mark mentioned, they are are pretty much the same.

The Carousel discs were nothing more than blank discs, that each store could stamp with their own address. Thus, you will find a variety of different stamped backs. I also have one with Circus Wagon stamped on the back. I'm not sure if they are related to Carousel or a different company altogether.

The Red Barn discs can be found with or without the address line
