Hi All. Thanks for the input. It seems like most folks are on board with the new Mathews, and there is a slight majority favoring the old Killebrew and the new Snider.

For the Killebrew, I think the color of the old one is generally better (whiter border) but the red line near the bottom of the card isn't great. There are also a few black print marks on the back (see his field average in the 1955 row) whereas the new one has a clean back. The color/surface of the new one near his portrait has some issues as well.

The Snider is tough. The color of the new one has a stronger black near the name and generally appears more yellow than the old one. I think the corners are a tiny bit better on the old one. It's a close call.

I will probably sell the duplicates, but I first need to figure out which ones to keep. Thanks again for the input and let me know if you have more thoughts.
