Here is a side to side illustration of the different sizing of the two sets of W515 cards (W515-2 on left, W515-1 on right). Note that the W515-2 have an enlarged player image (and more of the original artwork was utilized compared to what is seen on the W515-1 cards).
Brian (overall I slightly prefer the W515-2 enlarged look. Note on his W515-2 Adams has a full "P" on his uniform, and on other cards in the W515-2 set you will sometimes get an extra button depicted!) Last edited by brianp-beme; 08-13-2025 at 09:05 PM.

Overlaid Waite Hoyt's W515-1 image onto W515-2, which now makes it possible the "dotted G" sign is an artist monogram. About a dozen W515-2 players show that letter, with W515-1's closer cropping hiding it.

Hey Spike! Long time bro.
Great info and very interesting. Even if you don't like the set, the info is wonderful to know. I don't have much to add other than this scan of my four card strip. Thanks .
