Default Let's see some Obaks

I've recently taken a shining to these little guys and am considering starting to dabble in them. Would love to see some scans......

interesting. So they were printed by team? Was every player from the same team printed in the same colors?

Being more of a gum collector than tobacco, this may be a stupid question, but were Obaks the first cards to put any kind of stats on the backs? And why do some have them and some don't? Is it safe to assume that the ones that don't are "rookies" with no previous years stats to print?

Default Obaks and more

Click this link - http://www.sportingoregon.com/p82778321 - and then click "Show All" at the bottom. You can click on any individual card for a closer look and a description. Your backspace key will bounce you back. When you're done there click the "All The Photos" link in the upper left to see the whole shebang, or you can get there by clicking here for the main gallery page: http://www.sportingoregon.com/f586168153
