Default Our Hobby's biggest mysteries...

Posted By: Jason L

ok, lots of questions concerning why certain players were or were not in certain sets, and then plenty of questions surrounding distribution methods and quantities.

When this information has been found in the past for some of the sets that we know plenty about, what does the source look like?
Do people find company records -like advertising budgets, printing orders, sales orders, etc??? Or is our entire body of knowledge been pieced together from the issues themeslves -like what the backs say, etc???

What are we looking for? aside from some miraculous lucky find of the actual items in someone's attic?

Should we be searching company archives, legal records, elsewhere?

Seems to me there's just so much that we don't know!
