A very rare uncataloged set from 1972

[cardinalcollector]

I found this set after years of searching for the Wilmer Mizell card, whom I thought was pictured in full Cardinals uniform. After receiving the set, I learned that is was not Mizell, but James Symington wearing the Cards uni.

This set was issued by Sears, Roebuck, and Co. in bubblegum packs, for the 1972 Roll Call Congressional Baseball Game. The annual game was played at RFK Stadium.

Previous info on this set is scarce, the only reference I could find was this auction result from Huggins & Scott from nearly 7 years ago. They had a lot of 17 sell for $100

The lot I won has 36 cards including every card listed in the Huggins & Scott auction. I'm guessing it is a complete set.

The cards measure 2.5 x 3.25". The backs are identical except for the player identification.

I also have 5 pages of documentation from this set/game that I can post if anybody is interested.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the set since Mizell is not pictured as a Cardinal. I thought I would share this info with the board, and any input is welcome.
