In the mid -eighties, I had a couple of video stores in town and in one of them, I had a glass case with some baseball items for sale (wax packs and singles). a customer brought in this old box with these really small cards in them. No idea what they were, but I recognized Cobb, Johnson and a few other HOFs. They were in pretty rough shape so I accepted his offer of the cards for a $100.00 bucks. There were quite a few cards that were missing the red ink like the card I use as my avatar and a Willis with a gray background. I wish I had kept all the "missing reds" as they might have provided some insight into the makeup of a full sheet.
