I have one of the remnant cards and think there may be examples in the never ending variations thread I have never seen the Tommie version, but Olbermann seemed sure it exists, and maybe said he had or saw one
Thanks Al for that! I love reading this type of info. It surely looks odd that gap, I've always noticed this about that card. Off to google to find the article.

Love the Mercer card, he was a favorite when I was a kid...how cool you were at those games...
