I really am just guessing. All three of his cards from 81 and 82 from Japan are short printed for some reason.

Maybe it was on purpose to get Japanese kids to buy more. Maybe he didn't agree to the image being used. Maybe it was a mistake.

It is my understanding that the cards were made by a different manufacture so it would appear there are two licensing agreements involved.

When I worked with Stan Hansen two years ago he has lots of cards from Japan he didn't even know were made and didn't authorize his image being used. He gets super pissed about it and won't sign them.

Like I said in the video his Cosmos card is much harder to find and has only 5 copies graded by PSA and the Flair has 14. For some reason there just aren't as many.
