Great information. The only card i need from "B" sheet is Dale Murphy, but the most toughest from "B" is the Bucky Dent in "Action" Blackless.

Wow that's pretty cool. Sounds like a long-term project for sure.

most of my Blackless cards were purchased from J. Sterbenz from his collection. He and I established a friendship and tremendous trust, he even sent me cards without paying and then I paid them, thanks to him I was able to complete 95% of the set, he helped me a lot. sadly he passed away in August 2023. Steve lee from Michigan I purchase the #450 Jack Morris and 4 Cards from "B", Great guy. I purchase few graded Cards from New Religion(Ebay seller) from Illinois, including Johnny Bench in PSA
6 and Eddie Murray in PSA 7.

I Request Cards in the past from Crystalentia but he never return the message and he deactivate the Ebay account.

Unfortunately Fred passed. He certainly gave Blackless cards a lot of publicity. I keep a lot of his write ups with my set

He was also a good early source for Topps 85 Minis
