Question - Until I found these (and these are also listed at TCDB) I had thought the only advertising inserts in 1988 Topps were the glossy card ads, with their variations. I opened a ton of wax and never found a Company Store ad card.
Anyone know how these were distributed? Cello? Some other way? I found a video of a rack opening on Youtube but no Company Store cards there either.
Thanks!

Both the blank and fully-printed 1988 Comapny Store cards were issued in 1988 Topps Big, the blank versions are far more common than the printed ones.
