I'd say that it has to do with the red or blue borders. They are really prone to chipping; high-grade copies are TOUGH to find. I owned a set once (don't have it anymore) and seem to remember a sort of gloss on the surface that's not present in other Goudeys, either.

I'd also say that the theory of the puzzle has a lot of credence.

It really is a very cool and very underappreciated set, though. I love the cards, and I love the 4-in-1 concept. It's kinda like, you buy one card, you get four. Then, even though there's only one card, you can refer to it as "cards." You could have just one card and say something like "I'm looking at my baseball cards. They are very nice. I like them."

That's an appealing concept, I think.
