They were well represented in the cards I sorted. I pulled a Toronto (I think?) card myself from an employee box that I traded away awhile ago.
The cards I sorted were purchased as a lot from Kit Young, I believe.

Mighty Bombjack, Would you happen to recall how many/or if any complete T206 sets were purchased to be inserted into packs as part of the buyback program. I wouldn't think any of the Big 4 were included. I am asking because I'm working on a set in buyback form, I know there was an article years ago of a collector who had a near set, can't remember exact number (can't find the article) but just curious as to how close I can get... Thanks in advance for any help... Ralph
