Larry I get what you are saying-- you conclude that because one box says 1950 and the other does not, then it is beyond dispute that they must be from different years. It would seem others disagree-- at least Mile High. And you offer no explanation on why the distinctive five-star logo, which is on the back of the 1950 cards with the "Collectors Club" reference, appears on the REA and Mile High boxes, yet is not mentioned on the 1949 cards. Not definitive, especially since the logo was used by Bowman on non-sports cards from 1949, but surely curious, don't you think?
PS. Incidentally, REA itself previously offered what appears to be the same style box--no year stated-- as a 1950 issue: https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...e?itemid=44396

So you're saying Mile High got it wrong, and when REA sold the same style box a few years ago, they got it wrong too?

REA did not show a photo of the open box, did they? An image of that, if available, would potentially help a bit...

Did they get it wrong in 2017? Did you even see the link I posted?
