I have been looking for the following cards for a long time. Does anyone know anything about these cards?

1966 American Oil Dick Butkus (I know this is the winner, but has anyone ever seen one?)

1961 Lake to Lake Ray Nitschke. This one has been impossible to find anywhere. last one I saw sold ungraded in poor condition for over a grand

1948 Sears Browns. Anybody know how many are out there? I have only seen one complete set sell.

1959 Bell Brand Sid Gillman. Never seen one.

1967 Royal Castle Ralph Wilson Jr. Heard it exists, but never seen an example.

Any info would be helpful. Does anyone else have any "impossible" cards to share?

never seen one before

<1961 Lake to Lake Ray Nitschke. This one has been impossible to find anywhere. last one I saw sold ungraded <in poor condition for over a grand

saw one at a card show about 20 years ago priced at $150 in near mint.

<1948 Sears Browns. Anybody know how many are out there? I <have only seen one complete set sell.

have never seen a Sears Browns card in person

<1959 Bell Brand Sid Gillman. Never seen one.

saw one at the same show where the Lake to Lake Nitschke was and owned by the same seller, he wanted $75 in near mint

<1967 Royal Castle Ralph Wilson Jr. Heard it exists, but <never seen an example.

never even heard of a Ralph Wilson card from that set. But have seen a card of George Wilson many years ago and it wasn't cheap.

I picked this one up at a show quite a while ago along with a few others from this set. I only need a few more to finish (minus jobko).

Here is the Butkus. If anyone comes across one of these, or the Unitas let me know.

Apparantly, the winning stamps are the following:

$1 = Wayne Walker

$2 = Dave Parks

$25 = John Unitas

$250 = Dick Butkus

Mustang = Gary Collins

Any of the winning stamps would be considered SPs, and the Butkus is his rookie year.
