GriffinsDennis- Interesting, I'll have to dig up the issue.
If that is the case (and I have no reason to dispute it) wonder why there is no sales info on the back, just the regular card backs? In '39 (or perhaps '38) they stamped "Free Sample Card" on the reverse.
This would also mean that any individual cards on paper stock were probably cut after they left the factory. PSA's pop report shows an entry of 1 of each card #'d 1-24 (plus an extra #8 Ott) being graded, as "Paper- Hand Cut". The SGC Gehringer I have shows no such hand cut designation. Is anyone able to access the SGC pop report, and does it classify any as hand cut?
