I picked up some of these on ebay recently, and I've never owned any of either kind before so I'm not sure if mine are originals or later reprints. Any help would be appreciated. The seller auctioned off about 20 of them individually, and I just picked up what I considered to be the key cards -- Robinson, Musial, and DiMaggio.

My cards are noticeably (but not dramatically) different in size from each other. All the corners are "round", but some are further in than others from where the corner would be on a squared card (which I take to mean they may have been rounded later on by someone with scissors). The Jackie Robinson is miscut with part of another card showing at the top. The DiMaggio, and several others the seller had, are listed as short-prints that did not turn up in the squared corner find of the 1980's.

I can post pictures if necessary, but I thought maybe the info above would be enough for one of the experts.

Thanks.
