I discovered the Mike McCormick variation in 1986. Ralph Nozaki had a column in Baseball Hobby News back then. He was the Variation expert and the author of "The Mistake Manual" the first book on variations. I mailed both cards to him for verification and he wrote an article about it, I believe in the summer of 1986. I have since lost the article, but perhaps someone on Net54 can locate it and show it here? The funny thing about it was that my personal collection had the rare white version. I stumbled upon the yellow common version by sheer luck. At the time, I thought yellow was the rare one.
