Ah, memories, a flashback to a time when my posts were ignored..ha-ha.
I spent a lot of money and I spent a lot of time on this set. Most that I saw and have seen since are not creased. They are 'see one buy one rare'. Knight is the most common or close. Here's one with a horizontal crease instead of a vertical one...

Do you think that it was folded to fit in the other wrapper?
I have seen others with horizontal crease; geez; didn't somebody think that folding these things was a dumb idea? https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1Q...tFV9UWDBDF-h6W Last edited by benge610; 04-17-2019 at 05:29 PM. |

Ben, I always thought one person folded them and others did not, but I just thought that, I don't have any evidence. Here are 3 that I have currently. I think I traded the creased Bemis away.

? You mean, "the folder" was the receiver of the card? I may be reading you wrong; sorry if so. I figured that Mello Mint wanted to get in on the popularity of card-inserted-into-product, craze; weren't about to redesign their packaging; decided to fold them and insert.
I love this whole collecting era because of the lack of concrete evidence. |

Here is a link to a thread that has a link to a lajoie side by side with a wrapper. It looks to me like the card could fit, but I don't even know that the wrapper is correct. I thought a guy at the factory lazily folded them, while others carefully inserted them. I really am just speculating.

Fun discussion. There are a few collectors on here that have made a lot of progress on this set in recent years that might chime in with their thoughts. I can't help with the tech stuff, maybe others can help with the photos. I upload scans that I put on my laptop with the paperclip icon.
