They do not have the typical salesman back but that is what the seller concluded. (big write up as you scroll down)

Those look more like cut from a High series sheet, to me. Why would Topps print up salesman samples for the High Series? If you notice the other samples, they're all from the first series (1-90), right?
#12 Basgall
#13 Wyrostek
#14 B Elliott

#18 Combs
#19 Bucha
#20 Loes

#45 Joost
#46 Goldsberry
#47 W Jones

#10 Rosen
#9 Hogue
#8 Marsh

Each panel seems to be three consecutively numbered cards; is that how they were arranged on an uncut 1st series sheet?

I didn't know they were consecutive numbers. That's great info.
I realized when you posted that I forgot to post the 5th panel.

#42, 43 and 44

Thanks.
