Ayuh.
Boy, these look tiny. This program is acting all kindsa funky since I reinstalled it.
Anyway, these are the three new W502s I was telling you about. Whoever "you" happen to be.
I'm learning something about the backs of these cards, because at this point I have four different ones among the eight cards I have from the set. And I haven't picked up a Home Run back yet because Wealthy Collector Who Shall Remain Nameless smoked me on a Cobb last month.
Anyway, the four backs I own:
1) "ONE BAGGER - Hold What You Got" - printed vertically on the card, facing to the right.
2) "ONE BAGGER - Hold What You Got" - printed vertically on the card, facing to the left.
3) "ONE BAGGER" - printed vertically on the card, facing to the left
4) Blank back.
I'm pretty sure that there's no resource on these cards, and everyone I ask about them says "Umm, they're scarce. And a lot of them have glue on the backs."
So I don't know how they were printed, who released them, what the purpose of the game on the back was, why they were printed in two different directions. For all I know, they were issued by multiple companies like their cousins of the same year (Yuengling/Tharp's/Harrington/Sweetman).
I'm up for a good mystery, though.
