John - to answer some of your questions, most cards were tucked against the cigarettes however not all where - it really was dependant upon the brand.
In terms of other stories, one of the more famous stories was the man who pulled an Old Judge card from an unopened pack of Old Judge cigarettes at the east cost national (I think) a few years back. SGC graded the card on the spot as a 98. I believe someone has a scan of the card and the flip makes mention to it being pulled from the pack.
