Inserts
Box Bottoms
Six cards were printed on the bottom of each display box. The same five player cards were on every box, with the six being one of three team logos: Mets, Dodgers, or Red Sox. The three team logo cards are blank-backed and are not sequentially-numbered. It is believed all three team logos were produced in roughly equal quantities.
