That's weird, Marty. When you've referred to Mr. Laughlin 'thickening up' (my term) the cards in the past, I didn't realize you meant he actually glued one card right on top of another card. Wow! Mind blown. I have some with the glue on back, but I assumed it was a result of affixing the cards to an album page...even though the thin stock would've precluded anyone from successfully removing them from said album without heavy damage. This set grows more and more interesting by the day.

Do you (or anyone else reading this) have a #61 Mantle card with the address on back that you could post here? The larger the better. I'm doing some (perhaps fruitless) research, and the only example of the card w/address I can find on-line is the one I posted here.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
