Presentation sets were used for various purposes. I have heard (not confirmed, but heard) they:

1) Were printed with a glossier finish

2) Have better centering than normal and

3) Were cut differently than the regular issue cards.

I have always thought Topps ended projects like this and the Rookie Banquet programs in the mid 60's to conserve funds in years bookending the move to Duryea (1965) but it's just a hunch. Once they had the Duryea plant, they started experimenting with test issues as well.
