Is it a W517 Mini or Exhibit?

Thank you. That was the one I couldn’t find a picture of….

Why does the 4 in 1 Exhibit have players from 4 different teams. I thought those Exhibits all had players from the same team on them. At least all the ones I own do.

You are thinking of the 1929-38 issues.



There were two 4 on 1 issues in the 1920s. The one shown above had ballplayers from different teams.



The other one, which is earlier, had ballplayers, boxers and actors:



The latter had their own corresponding strip cards too

Either way it is a great card to have

W517 Minis don't get a lot of love around here...
