Not sure how "scarce" the set really is, other than I'm pretty sure they made less of them than the full sized set. It has its fans and its detractors. As a condition sensitive set, it has pretty much every issue you could imagine and so truly nice centered pack fresh cards are tough to come by. This is particularly true with a handful of issues, such as #16, and #647 and another 30 or 40 cards that have chronic ink splotches, and/or are usually off center/tilted and/or are factory cut short top to bottom.

There was a case break of 1975 minis about 10 years ago on the PSA boards.

I would assume that's the source of many EX-MT cards floating around especially if they are graded.
