Always good for a Diamond Stars card or two (or a few). Definitely one of the first sets I got into, due to its great and interesting artwork.

I just love the artwork. I need 19 cards to complete the set.
Does anyone know how many different style wrappers were produced?

I have a complete set of these - that is a complete set of 96 cards. I don't really see the need to go after the twelve scarcer high numbered duplicates since they are only duplicates, except for the higher numbers on back.

I always felt the same way...but to be fair, they also have 1935 stats on the back instead of 1934 (and in some cases 1933). I always wished they instead issued the cards seen on that 12 card proof sheet (as seen in the first scan, and what I believe is the Pete Fox original artwork seen on that sheet)...those cards really have a colorful geometric background.

I will likely take the same approach if I ever chase the set.
