Although I think I am still scarred by the cards of the East German "women" swimmers...
Thanks for sharing the commercial - nice memories!

yep, same with me. Virtually any and every sport was at some point available, and no one wanted the badminton or table tennis cards, but you had to take them to get the baseball/basketball/football/hockey guys.
