I get by with little help from my friends…

The Gehrig (and my two 'mini w517' cards--both unnumbered, by the way) could have been cut from an 4 in 1 Exhibit card, as the measurements of my two (each is 1-3/4" x 2-5/8") fall close within the normal Exhibit postcard size (3-3/8" x 5-3/8")if there were four cards placed together. But as Mark has indicated, one of my cards has a dotted line at the top, which is not apparent on the Lipset Exhibit which Frank has included in his posting. I don't remember seeing any 4 in 1 Exhibit cards with dotted lines. Also, both of my cards are blank backed, and the Lipset lot is described as having a "postcard back", which many Exhibit cards exhibit (a positively awful play on words). So I don't think John's Gehrig, or my two examples, are cut down Exhibits, but instead a mini version of the W517's that was issued in a strip of cards.
